Tissierella creatinophila DSM 6911

Tissierella creatinophila DSM 6911 is an anaerobic, rod-shaped bacterium. As an anaerobe, it thrives in environments devoid of oxygen, which is a critical trait for its survival and metabolic processes. The organism possesses a single replicon, indicating a streamlined genomic structure that may facilitate efficient replication and adaptation to its anaerobic niche. The strain is cataloged under the accession number LTDM00000000.1, which provides a reference for genetic and genomic studies. The characterization of T. creatinophila DSM 6911 contributes to our understanding of the diversity within the Tissierella genus and its ecological roles, particularly in anaerobic environments. Biologically, Tissierella creatinophila may play a significant role in the degradation of organic matter in anaerobic habitats, such as the human gastrointestinal tract or other anoxic environments. Understanding its physiological traits and ecological functions can provide insights into its potential applications in biotechnology and microbiome research, particularly in relation to gut health and fermentation processes.
