Here, we report the draft genome sequence for a new putative genus and species in the Methanoregulaceae family, whose members are generally slow-growing rod-shaped or coccoid methanogenic archaea. The information on this sediment-dwelling organism sheds light on the prokaryotes inhabiting isolated, deep, and extremely cold methane-rich environments., (Copyright © 2019 Wagner et al.)

This paper describes the complete genome sequences and methylome analysis of six psychrotrophic strains isolated from perennially ice-covered Lake Untersee in Antarctica., (Copyright © 2017 Fomenkov et al.)

Janthinobacterium sp. Ant5-2-1, isolated from the Schirmacher Oasis of East Antarctica, produces a purple-violet pigment, manifests diverse energy metabolism abilities, and tolerates cold, ultraviolet radiation, and other environmental stressors. We report here the 6.19-Mb draft genome of strain Ant5-2-1, which will help understand its survival mechanisms in extreme Antarctic ecosystems., (Copyright © 2016 Koo et al.)

Hymenobacter sp. IS2118, isolated from a freshwater lake in Schirmacher Oasis, Antarctica, produces extracellular polymeric substance (EPS) and manifests tolerance to cold, UV radiation (UVR), and oxidative stress. We report the 5.26-Mb draft genome of strain IS2118, which will help us to understand its adaptation and survival mechanisms in Antarctic extreme ecosystems., (Copyright © 2014 Koo et al.)
