Pyrolobus fumarii

Blochl, E., Rachel, R Burggraf, S., Hafenbradl, D., Jannasch, H.W. and Stetter, K.O. (1997). Pyrolobus fumarii gen. and sp. nov. represents a novel group of Archaea, extending the upper temperature border of life to 113°C. Extremophiles 1,14-21. [Pg.260]

High temperature 121 °C, Strain 121 113°C, Pyrolobus fumarii 60°C algae, e.g., Cyanidium caldarium and some fungal species Submarine hydrothermal systems geothermal hot springs (e.g., Yellowstone)... [Pg.49]

Pyrolobus fumarii can multiply in temperatures up to 113°C, however, which is still a remarkable upper limit for a living organism [21]. It grows on the walls of deep ocean black smokers. The water is rich in minerals, and these (in combination with carbon dioxide) provide the food source for P. fumarii. For this reason, P. fumarii is... [Pg.1129]

The hyperthermophiles were discovered in the 1960s in hot springs in Yellowstone National Park. The hyperthermophile Strain 121 is able to survive a temperature of 121°C and even to double its population within 24 hours in such an environment. It consists of hyperthermostable proteins. Another example is Pyrolobus fumarii, an Archaea living at 113°C in Atlantic hydrothermal vents. [Pg.30]
