Prevotella histicola JCM 15637 = DNF00424

Prevotella histicola JCM 15637, also known as DNF00424, is a species of bacteria characterized by its single flagellum, which plays a significant role in its motility. This trait indicates an adaptation that may facilitate its movement within various environments, contributing to its ecological interactions. The organism possesses a single replicon, which reflects a streamlined genomic structure that may influence its replication and metabolic processes. The accession number for Prevotella histicola is JRNJ00000000.1, which provides a reference for researchers seeking genomic information about this species. While specific metabolic pathways and ecological roles are not detailed in the provided traits, the presence of a flagellum suggests that Prevotella histicola may be adapted to thrive in diverse habitats, potentially including anaerobic environments, which are typical for many members of the Prevotella genus. In summary, the notable traits of Prevotella histicola JCM 15637, including its flagellum and single replicon, highlight its potential motility and genomic simplicity. These characteristics may influence its ecological role, particularly in anaerobic conditions where it could play a part in nutrient cycling or interactions with other microorganisms.
