Strictly anaerobic chemotroph.
When grown in pure culture with glyoxylate as carbon source the organism utilizes glyoxylate through fermentative oxidation, whereas, when grown in syntrophic co-culture with homoacetogenic or methanogenic bacteria, it is able to oxidize glycolate to carbon dioxide and hydrogen.
Isolated from anoxic sewage sludge in Konstanz, Germany.
