Description
Methanothermococcus okinawensis (strain DSM 14208 / JCM 11175 / IH1) is a strictly anaerobic, thermophilic, methane-producing archaeon isolated from a deep-sea hydrothermal vent chimney at the Iheya Ridge, in the Okinawa Trough, Japan. The cells are highly motile, irregular cocci, with a polar bundle of flagella. Growth is observed between 40 and 75 degrees Celsius with an optimum around 60-65 degrees Celsius and between pH 4.5 and 8.5 with an optimum around pH 6-7. It grows over the concentration range 12-96 g/l sea salts , with optimum growth at 25-50 g/l sea salts at 62 degrees Celsius and pH 7. It is resistant to streptomycin. Methanothermococcus okinawensis is able to use hydrogen and carbon dioxide as sole sources of energy and carbon. Formate can serve as an alternative energy source. It utilizes ammonium ions as a nitrogen source but could not use nitrite or nitrate. The presence of magnetite (Fe3O4) improved growth. (Adapted from PMID: 12148612).
