Description

Lactobacillus johnsonii N6.2 is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacterium that is classified as a facultative anaerobe. This species is characterized by its arrangement in chains and is known to have a single membrane structure. L. johnsonii N6.2 has a mesophilic temperature range with an optimal growth temperature of 25°C. In terms of mobility, this bacterium does not exhibit movement; however, it possesses flagella. L. johnsonii N6.2 is host-associated and maintains a free-living biotic relationship, suggesting it may play a role in the microbiota of its host. The organism is cataloged under the accession number NC_022909.1, which provides a reference for its genetic information. The presence of a single replicon indicates a relatively simple genomic structure, typical of many Lactobacillus species. The ecological insight from L. johnsonii N6.2 being host-associated and free-living suggests its potential importance in maintaining the balance of microbial communities within its environment. Such bacteria often contribute to gut health, fermentation processes, and overall microbial diversity, which are crucial for ecosystem stability and host well-being.
