Genome analysis and genome-wide proteomics of Thermococcus gammatolerans the most radioresistant organism known amongst the Archaea

摘要

BackgroundThermococcus gammatolerans was isolated from samples collected from hydrothermal chimneys. It is one of the most radioresistant organisms known amongst the Archaea. We report the determination and annotation of its complete genome sequence, its comparison with other Thermococcales genomes, and a proteomic analysis.
