Veillonella atypica strain CMW7756B

Veillonella atypica strain CMW7756B is a Gram-negative anaerobic bacterium primarily found in the oral cavity of Homo sapiens. This strain is characterized by its presence of flagella, which may contribute to its motility within the complex environment of the oral microbiome. As an anaerobe, Veillonella atypica thrives in oxygen-deprived environments, which is typical for many members of the oral microbiota that have adapted to the unique conditions of the human mouth. The strain CMW7756B has a single replicon, indicating a streamlined genomic organization that may play a role in its adaptability and survival in the dynamic oral ecosystem. The specific accession for this strain is LRQT00000000.1, which provides a reference for genetic and genomic studies. Understanding the traits of Veillonella atypica, including its anaerobic lifestyle and association with human hosts, can shed light on its ecological role in the oral cavity. This bacterium may contribute to the complex interactions within the oral microbiome, influencing health and disease states, including dental caries and periodontal diseases. Its flagellar motility could facilitate colonization and interaction with other microbial species, highlighting its potential importance in maintaining the balance of oral microbial communities.
