Acidaminococcus intestini strain D21

Acidaminococcus intestini strain D21 is characterized as a Gram-negative, anaerobic cocci bacterium. This strain is part of the Acidaminococcus genus, which is known for its role in the gut microbiota of various hosts. A notable feature of strain D21 is that it possesses a single replicon, which is indicative of its genomic organization. The anaerobic nature of Acidaminococcus intestini strain D21 suggests that it thrives in low-oxygen environments, such as the intestines of mammals, where it may contribute to various metabolic processes. Its cocci shape is typical of many bacteria within the same genus, reflecting common structural and functional traits that may influence its interactions within the gut microbiome. The strain is cataloged under the accession number ACGB00000000.1, which provides a reference for researchers seeking to explore its genetic and biochemical properties further. The study of Acidaminococcus intestini strain D21 can enhance our understanding of gut microbial communities and their contributions to host health, including metabolic functions and the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis. In summary, Acidaminococcus intestini strain D21 exemplifies the characteristics of anaerobic cocci bacteria within the gut microbiome, and its presence may play a significant role in the complex interactions that define microbial ecology in intestinal environments.
