Complete genome sequence of the hyperthermophilic cellulolytic crenarchaeon "Thermogladius cellulolyticus" 1633.

ABSTRACT: Strain 1633, a novel member of the genus Thermogladius, isolated from a freshwater hot spring, is an anaerobic hyperthermophilic crenarchaeon capable of fermenting proteinaceous and cellulose substrates. The complete genome sequence reveals genes for protein and carbohydrate-active enzymes, the Embden-Meyerhof pathway for glucose metabolism, cytoplasmic NADP-dependent hydrogenase, and several energy-coupling membrane-bound oxidoreductases.
