Sumario:Thermotoga sp. strain RQ7 is a member of the family Thermotogaceae in the order Thermotogales. It is a Gram negative, hyperthermophilic, and strictly anaerobic bacterium. It grows on diverse simple and complex carbohydrates and can use protons as the final electron acceptor. Its complete genome is composed of a chromosome of 1,851,618 bp and a plasmid of 846 bp. The chromosome contains 1906 putative genes, including 1853 protein coding genes and 53 RNA genes. The genetic features pertaining to various lateral gene transfer mechanisms are analyzed. The genome carries a complete set of putative competence genes, 8 loci of CRISPRs, and a deletion of a well-conserved Type II R-M system.
