Segatella copri CAG:164

Segatella copri CAG:164 is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium classified as an anaerobe, indicating that it thrives in environments devoid of oxygen. This particular strain has only one replicon, suggesting a streamlined genomic organization which can be indicative of its ecological niche and metabolic capabilities. The strain is cataloged with the accession number CBCH000000000.1, which allows for its identification and differentiation from other microbial species. The anaerobic nature of Segatella copri CAG:164 points to its potential role in various ecosystems, particularly in the human gut where oxygen levels are low. Anaerobic bacteria are often involved in processes such as fermentation and the breakdown of complex carbohydrates, contributing to nutrient cycling and energy production within their environments. Understanding the metabolic pathways and ecological roles of S. copri may provide insights into its significance in gut microbiota dynamics and human health. Overall, the traits of Segatella copri CAG:164 highlight its specialized adaptations to anaerobic conditions, which may influence its interactions within microbial communities and its potential effects on host organisms.
