Genomic insight and physiological characterization of thermoacidophilic Alicyclobacillus isolated from Yellowstone National Park.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Alicyclobacillus has been isolated from extreme environments such as hot springs, volcanoes, as well as pasteurized acidic beverages, because it can tolerate extreme temperatures and acidity. In our previous study, Alicyclobacillus was isolated during the enrichment of methane oxidizing bacteria from Yellowstone Hot Spring samples.

Methods

Physiological characterization and genomic exploration of two new Alicyclobacillus isolates, AL01A and AL05G, are the main focus of this study to identify their potential relationships with a thermoacidophilic methanotroph (Methylacidiphilum) isolated from the same hot spring sediments.

Results and discussion

In the present study, both Alicyclobacillus isolates showed optimal growth at
