TL;DR
Scientists sequenced the genome of a bacteria from a hot spring in Japan that produces hydrogen gas.
Contribution
The study reports the complete genome sequence of Fervidobacterium gondwanense Kr-7 and identifies hydrogenase genes linked to hydrogen production.
Findings
The genome contains hydrogenase genes potentially involved in H2 production.
The strain ferments various organic compounds to produce CO2 and H2.
Abstract
Fervidobacterium gondwanense Kr-7 strain (NBRC 117357) was isolated from a hot spring in Toyama Prefecture, Japan. This strain ferments a variety of organic compounds and produces CO2 and H2 as end products. Its genome sequence contains several hydrogenase genes that appear to be related to H2 production.
