Methanothermobacter marburgensis

Methanothermobacter marburgensis is a thermophilic and obligately autotrophic archaeon. Its type strain is MarburgT.[1] Its genome has been sequenced.[2]

It is named after the city of Marburg in Germany, where it was isolated from sewage sludge, bit it also lives in hot springs. The cells are slender and bar-shaped. They reduce carbon dioxide and hydrogen for energy, but they can also metabolize ethyl.[3]
