Eubacterium eligens CAG:72

Eubacterium eligens CAG:72 is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that exhibits anaerobic growth, indicating that it thrives in environments devoid of oxygen. This organism is classified as mesophilic, suggesting that it prefers moderate temperature ranges for optimal growth. Eubacterium eligens CAG:72 is characterized by the presence of flagella, which may facilitate motility in its host-associated habitat. This bacterium is free-living and has been identified in association with Homo sapiens, indicating a potential role in the human microbiome. It possesses a single replicon and one membrane, features that are typical for many bacteria within its classification. The accession number for Eubacterium eligens CAG:72 is CBBU000000000.1, which can be used for reference in genomic studies. The ecological insight provided by Eubacterium eligens CAG:72's association with humans highlights its potential significance in human health and microbiological research. Its anaerobic nature and mesophilic growth suggest that it may play a role in specific metabolic processes within the gastrointestinal tract, contributing to the overall homeostasis of the human microbiome. Understanding its functions and interactions could offer valuable information regarding its impact on human health and its potential applications in biotechnology or medicine.
