Species code:	CHLTE
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Chlorobi; Chlorobia; Chlorobiales; Chlorobiaceae; Chlorobaculum (TaxID: 1097) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Chlorobium tepidum is a Gram-negative bacterium of the green-sulfur phylum originally isolated from high-sulfide hot springs in New Zealand. It is thermophile and grows optimally at 48 Celsius degrees. It use multiple types of bacteriochlorophylls and carotenoids in unique structures known as chlorosomes for light harvesting.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: No Interaction: No Number of membranes: 2 Number of inteins:0
Statistics:	Number of CHLTE entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 2250 (389 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 1861 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)

Genome structure	Chromosome EMBL accession number AE006470 (circular; 2,154,946 bp) (download entry) (download Genome Reviews).
