Names Sulfurospirillum deleyianum DSM 6946
Accession numbers NC_013512
Background Sulfurospirillum deleyianum (strain ATCC 51133 / DSM 6946 / 5175) is a microaerophilic, sulfur-reducing Gram-negative bacterium isolated from freshwater pond sediment. This organism is able to reduce elemental sulphur, thiosulfate, nitrate and nitrite as an electron acceptor. Growth occurs with hydrogen or formate as electron donor, acetate as carbon source. S. deleyianum connected the biogeochemical cycles of sulfur and nitrogen. (Adaptated from: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=genomeprj&cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=29529). (HAMAP: SULD5)
