Species code:	DESVH
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Deltaproteobacteria; Desulfovibrionales; Desulfovibrionaceae; Desulfovibrio (TaxID: 882) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Desulfovibrio vulgaris is a model for the study of the energy metabolism of sulfate-reducing bacteria. Sulfate-reducing bacteria have an important economic impact because they are involved in biocorrosion of ferrous metals in anaerobic environment. For example, their metabolism has several negative consequences for the petroleum industry (e.g. corrosion of the pumping machinery). These bacteria also contribute to bioremediation of toxic metal ions.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: No Interaction: No Number of membranes: 2 Number of inteins:0
Statistics:	Number of DESVH entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 3517 (358 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 3159 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)
