Abstrakt: A novel strictly anaerobic hyperthermophilic archaeon, strain 4213-co T , was isolated from a terrestrial hot spring in the Uzon Caldera, Kamchatka (Russian Federation). Coccoid cells were present singly, in pairs, or aggregates, and occasionally were motile. The strain grew at 75-100 °C and within a pH range of 5.4-8.2 with the optimum at 92 °C and pH 6.4-6.7. Strain 4213-co T was a chemoorganoheterotroph, growing on proteinaceous substrates and mono-, di- and polysaccharides (starch, guar gum, xanthan gum). It did not require sodium chloride for growth. The complete genome of strain 4213-co T was 1.74 Mbp in size; its G+C content was 36.18 %. Genome analysis allowed to identify 25 genes encoding glycosidases involved in polysaccharide hydrolysis as well as genes of ADP-forming acetate-CoA ligase, lactate dehydrogenase and two [NiFe] hydrogenases responsible for acetate, lactate and hydrogen formation during fermentation. Moreover gene cluster encoding archaellum subunits was found. According to the phylogenomic analysis strain 4213-co T formed a species-level phylogenetic lineage within Ignisphaera genus. Our phylogenomic analysis also supports the delineation of the Ignisphaera genus into a separate family Ignisphaeraceae, as recently published. Here we propose a novel species Ignisphaera cupida, sp. nov. with type strain 4213-co T (=JCM 39446 T =VKM B-3715 T =UQM 41593 T ). Ecogenomic analysis showed that representatives of the Ignisphaera are thermophilic archaea, the majority of them were found in terrestrial hot springs and deep-sea hydrothermal vents. This study allowed a better understanding of physiology and ecology of Ignisphaeraceae - a rather understudied archaeal group.
