Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capricolum 14232

Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capricolum 14232 is a Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic bacterium characterized by its cocci shape and single-cell arrangement. This organism is non-motile, lacking flagella, which limits its mobility. It thrives optimally at a temperature of 37°C and falls within the mesophilic temperature range. Mycoplasma capricolum subsp. capricolum has a single replicon in its genetic structure, indicating a streamlined genomic organization. As a free-living bacterium, M. capricolum subsp. capricolum plays a role in the microbial community, potentially influencing the ecological dynamics within its environment. Its ability to survive in varying oxygen conditions allows it to occupy diverse niches, which may contribute to its ecological adaptability. Understanding the traits of this subspecies provides insight into its biological capabilities and ecological interactions, particularly in relation to its environmental survival strategies. The accession number JFDO00000000.1 serves as a reference for further genetic and biological studies of this bacterium.
