Species code:	NITMU
Taxonomy:	Bacteria; Proteobacteria; Betaproteobacteria; Nitrosomonadales; Nitrosomonadaceae; Nitrosospira (TaxID: 323848) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	The betaproteobacterium Nitrosospira is an ammonia-oxidizing bacterium. This chemolithoautotrophic bacterium oxidizes ammonia to nitrite as an energy source and assimilates CO2 as the major carbon source. They are of ecological importance in that they contribute to the biological oxidation of inorganic nitrogen compounds. Nitrosospira multiformis (strain ATCC 25196 / NCIMB 11849) consists of one chromosome and three plasmids.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: No Interaction: No Number of membranes: 2 Number of inteins:0
Statistics:	Number of NITMU entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 2732 (356 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 2376 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)
