Geobacillus sp. Y412MC52 was isolated from Obsidian Hot Spring, Yellowstone National Park, Montana, USA under permit from the National Park Service. The genome was sequenced, assembled, and annotated by the DOE Joint Genome Institute and deposited at the NCBI in December 2011 (CP002835). Based on 16S rRNA genes and average nucleotide identity, Geobacillus sp. Y412MC52 and the related Geobacillus sp. Y412MC61 appear to be members of a new species of Geobacillus. The genome of Geobacillus sp. Y412MC52 consists of one circular chromosome of 3,628,883 bp, an average G + C content of 52 % and one circular plasmid of 45,057 bp and an average G + C content of 45 %. Y412MC52 possesses arabinan, arabinoglucuronoxylan, and aromatic acid degradation clusters for degradation of hemicellulose from biomass. Transport and utilization clusters are also present for other carbohydrates including starch, cellobiose, and α- and β-galactooligosaccharides.
Geobacillus thermoglucosidasius Y4.1MC1 was isolated from a boiling spring in the lower geyser basin of Yellowstone National Park. This species is of interest because of its metabolic versatility. The genome consists of one circular chromosome of 3,840,330 bp and a circular plasmid of 71,617 bp with an average GC content of 44.01%. The genome is available in the GenBank database (NC_014650.1 and NC_014651.1). In addition to the expected metabolic pathways for sugars and amino acids, the Y4.1MC1 genome codes for two separate carbon monoxide utilization pathways, an aerobic oxidation pathway and the anaerobic reductive acetyl-CoA (Wood-Ljungdahl) pathway. This is the first report of a non-anaerobic organism with the Wood-Ljungdahl pathway. This anaerobic pathway permits the strain to utilize H2 and fix CO2 present in the hot spring environment. Y4.1MC1 and its related species may play a significant role in carbon capture and sequestration in thermophilic ecosystems and may open up new routes to produce biofuels and chemicals from CO, H2 and CO2.

Geobacillus thermoleovorans IT-08 is a Gram positive, thermophilic bacterium that can utilize xylan as a sole source of carbon. This strain was isolated from Gunung Pancar hot spring, Bogor, West Java, Indonesia. A plasmid genomic library in Escherichia coli DH5α was constructed and screened for xylanase activity. One positive clone, namely DH5α (pTP510) has been isolated, sequenced and showed putative exo-xylanase (exoxyl), β-xylosidase (xyl), and α-L-arabinofuranosidase (abfa) genes (Genebank Accession No.DQ387047, DQ345777 and DQ387046 respectively). Each gene encoded 604, 511 and 502 amino acids, respectively. The BLAST search for protein database revealed that Abfa was high similar with GH51 family Abfa of Geobacillus stearothermophilus T6, but Xyl and Exo-Xyl were slight similar with GH43 family (25-34%) respectively. The deduced protein had a molecular weight of about 70 kDa (Exo-Xyl), and 60 kDa (Xyl and Abfa). These showed good accordance with the calculated molecular weight of each protein (68.64 kDa for Exo-xyl, 57.99 kDa for Xyl and 57.03 kDa for Abfa) from deduced amino acid sequence.

Complete genome sequences of Geobacillus sp. WCH70, a thermophilic strain isolated from wood compost
Geobacillus sp. WCH70 was one of several thermophilic organisms isolated from hot composts in the Middleton, WI area. Comparison of 16 S rRNA sequences showed the strain may be a new species, and is most closely related to G. galactosidasius and G. toebii. The genome was sequenced, assembled, and annotated by the DOE Joint Genome Institute and deposited at the NCBI in December 2009 (CP001638). The genome of Geobacillus species WCH70 consists of one circular chromosome of 3,893,306 bp with an average G + C content of 43 %, and two circular plasmids of 33,899 and 10,287 bp with an average G + C content of 40 %. Among sequenced organisms, Geobacillus sp. WCH70 shares highest Average Nucleotide Identity (86 %) with G. thermoglucosidasius strains, as well as similar genome organization. Geobacillus sp. WCH70 appears to be a highly adaptable organism, with an exceptionally high 125 annotated transposons in the genome. The organism also possesses four predicted restriction-modification systems not found in other Geobacillus species.
In this work we report the whole genome sequences of six new Geobacillus xylanolytic strains along with the genomic analysis of their capability to degrade carbohydrates.. The six sequenced Geobacillus strains described here have a range of GC contents from 43.9% to 52.5% and clade with named Geobacillus species throughout the entire genus. We have identified a ~200 kb unique super-cluster in all six strains, containing five to eight distinct carbohydrate degradation clusters in a single genomic region, a feature not seen in other genera. The Geobacillus strains rely on a small number of secreted enzymes located within distinct clusters for carbohydrate utilization, in contrast to most biomass-degrading organisms which contain numerous secreted enzymes located randomly throughout the genomes. All six strains are able to utilize fructose, arabinose, xylose, mannitol, gluconate, xylan, and α-1,6-glucosides. The gene clusters for utilization of these seven substrates have identical organization and the individual proteins have a high percent identity to their homologs. The strains show significant differences in their ability to utilize inositol, sucrose, lactose, α-mannosides, α-1,4-glucosides and arabinan.

Thermoadaptation trait revealed by the genome sequence of thermophilic Geobacillus kaustophilus
Nucleic Acids Research, 2004
We present herein the first complete genome sequence of a thermophilic Bacillus-related species, Geobacillus kaustophilus HTA426, which is composed of a 3.54 Mb chromosome and a 47.9 kb plasmid, along with a comparative analysis with five other mesophilic bacillar genomes. Upon orthologous grouping of the six bacillar sequenced genomes, it was found that 1257 common orthologous groups composed of 1308 genes (37%) are shared by all the bacilli, whereas 839 genes (24%) in the G.kaustophilus genome were found to be unique to that species. We were able to find the first prokaryotic sperm protamine P1 homolog, polyamine synthase, polyamine ABC transporter and RNA methylase in the 839 unique genes; these may contribute to thermophily by stabilizing the nucleic acids. Contrasting results were obtained from the principal component analysis (PCA) of the amino acid composition and synonymous codon usage for highlighting the thermophilic signature of the G.kaustophilus genome. Only in the PCA of the amino acid composition were the Bacillus-related species located near, but were distinguishable from, the borderline distinguishing thermophiles from mesophiles on the second principal axis. Further analysis revealed some asymmetric amino acid substitutions between the thermophiles and the mesophiles, which are possibly associated with the thermoadaptation of the organism.

Verrucomicrobiotal methanotrophs are thermoacidophilic methane oxidizers that have been isolated from volcanic and geothermal regions of the world. We used a metagenomic approach that entailed obtaining the whole genome sequence of a verrucomicrobiotal methanotroph from a microbial consortium enriched from samples obtained from Nymph Lake (89.9 °C, pH 2.73) in Yellowstone National Park in the USA. To identify and reconstruct the verrucomicrobiotal genome from Illumina NovaSeq 6000 sequencing data, we constructed a bioinformatic pipeline with various combinations of de novo assembly, alignment, and binning algorithms. Based on the marker gene (pmoA), we identified and assembled the Candidatus Methylacidiphilum sp. YNP IV genome (2.47 Mbp, 2392 ORF, and 41.26% GC content). In a comparison of average nucleotide identity between Ca. Methylacidiphilum sp. YNP IV and Ca. Methylacidiphilum fumariolicum SolV, its closest 16S rRNA gene sequence relative, is lower than 95%, suggesting that Ca...
