Convivina intestini str. DSM 28795

Convivina intestini strain DSM 28795 is a microaerophilic bacterium, meaning it requires reduced levels of oxygen for optimal growth. This characteristic suggests a specialized ecological niche, likely within environments where oxygen availability fluctuates, such as the gastrointestinal tracts of animals. The genome of Convivina intestini consists of a single replicon, which is indicative of its streamlined genetic organization. The accession number for this strain is QEKT00000000.1, providing a reference for researchers seeking genomic information on this organism. Microaerophilic bacteria, including Convivina intestini, often play significant roles in various biological processes, such as fermentation and nutrient cycling within their habitats. Their adaptation to low-oxygen environments may facilitate interactions with other microbial communities, contributing to the overall dynamics of gut microbiomes. Understanding the specific ecological roles of Convivina intestini could provide insights into its contributions to host health or its potential applications in biotechnology.
