Matches in DBpedia 2015-10 for { ?s ?p "Thermococcus litoralis (T. litoralis) is a species of Archaea that is found around deep-sea hydrothermal vents as well as shallow submarine thermal springs and oil wells. It is an anaerobic organotroph hyperthermophile that is between 0.5–3.0 µm in diameter. Like the other species in the order thermococcales, T. litoralis is an irregular cocci hyperthermophile that grow between 55–100 °C. T. litoralis stands out from the rest of the thermococci in that it lacks motility. Its cell wall consists only of a single S-layer that does not form hexagonal lattices. Additionally, while many thermococcales obligately use sulfur as an electron acceptor in metabolism, T. litoralis only needs sulfur to help stimulate growth, and can live without it. T. litoralis has recently been popularized by the scientific community for its ability to produce an alternative DNA polymerase to the commonly used Taq polymerase. The T. litoralis polymerase, dubbed the vent polymerase, has been shown to have not only a lower error rate then Taq but also has proofreading 3’-5’ exonuclease abilities."@en }
