Biology:Methylomirabilaceae

From HandWiki

Methylomirabilaceae is a family of bacteria,[1] represented by type genus Ca. Methylomirabilis. Represented most famously by the novel methane-oxidizing bacterium Ca. Methylomirabilis oxyfera,[2] which appears to split oxygen from nitrates, it contains several other genera not yet described.

SILVA 138.1[2][3] lists 6 uncultured genera currently within the family:

  • Candidatus Methylomirabilis
  • MIZ14
  • MIZ17
  • SH765B-TzT-35
  • wb1-A12
  • Z114MB74

These genera are consistently described in methane-rich environments,[4][5][6] but only species within Candidatus Methylomirabilis are confidently described as methane-oxidizers.

Phylogeny

The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN)[1] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).[7]
