Enterococcus faecium 13.SD.W.09

Enterococcus faecium 13.SD.W.09 is a gram-positive bacterium characterized by its cocci shape and facultative anaerobic metabolism. This organism possesses flagella, which is a notable trait as many Enterococcus species are non-motile. The single replicon indicates a simpler genetic structure, potentially influencing its adaptability and replication processes. The accession number for this strain is ATID00000000.1, which provides a unique identifier for its genomic data. This can facilitate further research and comparison with other strains of Enterococcus faecium and related species. Biologically, Enterococcus faecium is often associated with various environments, including human gut flora, where it can play a role in maintaining microbial balance. The presence of flagella suggests a potential for motility, which may aid in its survival and colonization in diverse habitats, possibly enhancing its ecological versatility. Overall, Enterococcus faecium 13.SD.W.09 exemplifies the adaptability of Enterococcus species in various ecological niches, which can have implications for both health and disease in host organisms.
