Campylobacter jejuni strain CB333 104

Campylobacter jejuni strain CB333 104 is a Gram-negative, spirilla-shaped bacterium that typically exists in single cells or chains. This strain is classified as a microaerophile, indicating that it requires a low-oxygen environment for optimal growth and metabolism. As a heterotroph, strain CB333 104 relies on organic compounds as its energy source, which suggests its potential role in nutrient cycling within its habitat. The optimal growth temperature for Campylobacter jejuni strain CB333 104 has not been specified in the provided traits; however, members of the Campylobacter genus are generally known to thrive at temperatures around 42°C. This trait highlights the bacterium's adaptation to environments that may be warmer than typical ambient conditions. Given its ability to inhabit multiple environments, strain CB333 104 may be associated with various ecological niches, potentially including soil, water, and animal reservoirs, which can influence its interactions within microbial communities. The capacity to form chains could enhance its survival and competitive interactions in these diverse habitats. Understanding the ecological roles and interactions of C. jejuni strain CB333 104 within its environments may provide insights into its contributions to microbial diversity and ecosystem function.
