Species code:	PYRKO
Taxonomy:	Archaea; Euryarchaeota; Thermococci; Thermococcales; Thermococcaceae; Thermococcus (TaxID: 69014) [NEWT/ NCBI]
Description:	Pyrococcus kodakaraensis KOD1 (Thermococcus kodakaraensis KOD1), has been isolated from a solfatara on Kodakara Island, Kagoshima, Japan. It is a hyperthermophile organism, which grows between 65 and 100 degrees Celsius. The members of the Thermococcus genus are ubiquitously present in natural high-temperature environments, and are therefore considered to play a major role in the ecology and metabolic activity of microbial consortia within hot-water ecosystems.
Properties:	Presence of flagella: Yes Interaction: No Number of membranes: 1 Number of inteins: 11 in 11 different sequences
Statistics:	Number of PYRKO entries in the UniProt Knowledgebase: 2301 (384 in UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot + 1917 in UniProtKB/TrEMBL)

Genome structure:	Chromosome EMBL accession number AP006878 (circular; 2,088,737 bp) (download entry) (download Genome Reviews).
