Escherichia coli strain AR_0085

Escherichia coli strain AR_0085 is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that typically exists in pairs or single arrangements. This strain thrives optimally at 37.0°C, suggesting its adaptation to host-associated environments, such as the intestines of warm-blooded animals. As a facultative anaerobe, E. coli strain AR_0085 can metabolize in both the presence and absence of oxygen, allowing it to exploit various niches within its host. The traits of E. coli strain AR_0085 indicate its potential versatility in microbial metabolism and adaptability to varying oxygen levels, which may enhance its survival in diverse biological environments. Understanding such traits can provide insights into the ecological roles of this strain within the microbiome, potentially influencing nutrient cycling and host interactions.
