From 24 samples of hydrothermal venting structures collected at the East Pacific Rise (13°N), 13 enrichments of coccoid cells were obtained which grew on CO, producing H2 and CO2 at 80°C. A hyperthermophilic archaeon capable of lithotrophic growth on CO coupled with equimolar production of H2 was isolated. Based on its 16S rRNA sequence analysis, this organism was affiliated with the genus Thermococcus. Other strains of Thermococcales species (Pyrococcus furiosus, Thermococcus peptonophilus, T… CONTINUE READING
