Abstract
In taxonomy, the Thermoproteales are an order of the Thermoprotei.See the NCBI webpage on Thermoproteales. Data extracted from the They are the only organisms known to lack the SSB proteins, instead possessing the protein ThermoDBP that has displaced them. The rRNA genes of these organisms contain multiple introns, which can be homing endonuclease encoding genes, and their presence can impact the binding of "universal" 16S rRNA primers often used in environmental sequencing surveys.
