text:
Nitrososphaera gargensis is a non-pathogenic, small coccus measuring 0.9 ± 0.3 μm in diameter. N. gargensis is observed in small abnormal cocci groupings and uses its archaella to move via chemotaxis. Being an Archaeon, Nitrososphaera gargensis has a cell membrane composed of crenarchaeol, its isomer, and a distinct glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraether (GDGT), which is significant in identifying ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA). The organism plays a role in influencing ocean communities and food
