Proteomes · Chlorobaculum parvum (strain DSM 263 / NCIMB 8327) (Chlorobium vibrioforme subsp. thiosulfatophilum)

Description

Chlorobaculum parvum (formerly known as both Chlorobium vibrioforme subsp. thiosulfatophilum and Chlorobium limicola subsp. thiosulfatophilum) is a green sulfur bacteria. Grows as single, non-motile cells which are curved rods or vibrioid, approximately 1um wide. The photosynthetic pigments are BChl d with chlorobactene as the major carotenoid. Photoautotrophic growth occurs with sulfide, sulfur and thiosulfate as photosynthetic electron donors; molecular hydrogen may be used by some strains. In the presence of sulfide and bicarbonate, some simple organic compounds are photoassimilated. Vitamin B12 may be required for growth. Brackish water and marine bacteria that require at least 1% NaCl. This is the type strain (adapted from PubMed 12892110).
