Corynebacterium pacaense sp. nov., Alistipes megaguti sp. nov., Alistipes provencensis sp. nov., 3 new bacteria isolated from fresh human stool specimens

Abstract

Here we describe the basic characteristics of Corynebacterium pacaense strain Marseille-P2417T (= CSUR P2417), Alistipes megaguti strain Marseille-P5997T (= CSUR P5997) and Alistipes provencensis strain Marseille-P2431T (= CSUR P2431 = DSM 102308). The phenotypic criteria, the 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing and MALDI-TOF MS spectra analysis were used to identify and characterize these new bacteria species, which were isolated from fresh human stool specimens. Keywords: Alistipes megaguti, Alistipes provencensis, Corynebacterium pacaense, culturomics, taxonogenomics
