Gene database of Archaeoglobus fulgidus DSM 8774

Archaeoglobus fulgidus
is a thermophilic archaeon found in hyperthermal environments such as hot
springs and oil fields. With a small genome encoding fewer number of genes
compared to the typical bacterial species, A. fulgidus offers many
fascinating vistas for inquiry such as in functional genomics, metabolism, and
cellular physiology. This work sought to provide the genetic repertoire of A.
fulgidus DSM8774 by parsing the annotated genome sequence of the archaeon
downloaded from Genbank. Comprising gene name, gene function, and gene
sequence, the resource should find use in a variety of molecular phylogeny
research seeking to understand the evolutionary origins of this species and the
evolutionary context of its metabolic machinery.
