Sph1 is an aerobic, obligate methanotroph, which was isolated from cold methane seeps in West Siberia. This bacterium possesses only a particulate methane monooxygenase and is widely distributed in low-temperature environments. Strain Sph1 has the genomic potential for biosynthesis of hopanoids required for the maintenance of intracytoplasmic membranes.
Sph1是一种需氧的专性甲烷氧化菌,从西西伯利亚的冷甲烷渗漏处分离得到。这种细菌仅拥有一种颗粒性甲烷单加氧酶,广泛分布于低温环境中。菌株Sph1具有合成维持胞内膜所需类异戊二烯的基因组潜力。
