General information

Species:  Sulfolobus islandicus (strain Y.N.15.51 / Yellowstone #2)
Species code: SULIN
Taxonomy: Archaea; Crenarchaeota; Thermoprotei; Sulfolobales; Sulfolobaceae; Sulfolobus (TaxID: 419942) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description: Sulfolobus islandicus (strain Y.N.15.51 / Yellowstone 2), also called Yellowstone 2, is an aerobic thermo-acidophilic archaeum commonly identified in hot, acidic sulfur springs and isolated from a hot spring at Yellowstone National Park. S. islandicus can grow both chemoautotrophically, using sulfur or hydrogen sulfide, and heterotrophically. Like other Sulfolobus spp., S. islandicus can play host to a number of plasmids and viruses which may be useful in developing tools for genetic analysis.
