Malbranchea cinnamomea is a thermophilic fungus belonging to the order Onygenales.[7] This ascomycete fungi is often isolated from higher-temperature environments. It is naturally found in composting soil and can degrade plant biomass.

M. cinnamonea has biochemical relevance, as it produces a quinone antibiotic (6-(1-acetylethyl)-2-methoxy-2,5-cyclohexadiene-1,4-dione) named malbranicin,[8] as well as thermostable enzymes, such as alpha-glucosidases, xylanases, alpha-amylases, and glucanases.

The genome of M. cinnamomea was published in 2017 by Zoraide Granchi and coworkers from the OPTIBIOCAT project.[9] The genome contains 24.96 million bases. The OPTIBIOCAT consortium estimates that there are 9,437 protein-coding genes. The sequencing was performed in Leiden, The Netherlands[10]
