Porphyromonas sp. COT-108 OH1349

Porphyromonas sp. COT-108 OH1349 is characterized as a rod-shaped bacterium. This organism possesses flagella, which suggests it has the capability for motility. It contains a single replicon, indicating a relatively simple genomic structure compared to some other bacterial species. The genomic data for Porphyromonas sp. COT-108 OH1349 is accessible under the accession number JRAH00000000.1. This bacterium is part of the genus Porphyromonas, which is known to include species that can be involved in various ecological interactions, particularly in relation to human health. Members of the Porphyromonas genus are often associated with the human oral cavity and can play roles in periodontal disease. The presence of flagella in Porphyromonas sp. COT-108 OH1349 may enhance its ability to navigate through the complex environments in the oral microbiome, potentially influencing its interactions with other microorganisms and host tissues. The study of Porphyromonas sp. COT-108 OH1349 could provide insights into microbial dynamics, particularly in environments where motility is advantageous. Understanding its ecological role may contribute to broader knowledge regarding the microbial communities within the oral cavity and their implications for oral health and disease.
