Oxalobacter vibrioformis is an oxalate-degrading anaerobic bacterium that was isolated from anoxic freshwater sediments.[1] O. vibrioformis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, motile, vibrioid rod which belongs to the genus Oxalobacter. O. vibrioformis uses oxalate and oxamate as its sole source of energy and acetate as its main source of carbon.[1]
Genome
[edit]The genome of O. vibrioformis is approximately 2.6 Mb with a G+C content of 52%.[2]
