Dethiosulfovibrio peptidovorans Magot et al. 1997 is the type species of the genus Dethiosulfovibrio of the family Synergistaceae in the recently created phylum Sysnergistetes. The strictly anaerobic, vibrio-shaped, thiosulfate-reducing bacterium utilizes only peptides and amino acids, but no sugars or fatty acids. It was isolated from an offshore oil well where it is supposed to be involved in pitting corrosion of mild steel. While initially (1997) described as a distantly related to the genus Thermoanaerobacter, but not assigned to any specific genus, it is meanwhile taxonomically established within the novel phylum Synergistetes. A large number of repeats on the distal portions of the main contig prevented an economically justifiable closure of the last gaps. This is already the third published genome from a member of the phylum Synergistetes. The 2,576,359 bp long genome consists of three contigs with 2,458 protein-coding and 59 RNA genes and is part of the Genomic Encyclopedia of Bacteria and Archaea project.
