Its ID gene: the stretch scientists read to tell microbes apart. Each bar is one letter of its DNA. Every species has its own order of letters, so the pattern works like a fingerprint. Close relatives share most of it.
16S rRNA gene, V4 region: the 253 letters between the standard primers (515F/806R), which are the same in every species. One reference sequence; strains can differ by a letter or two. NCBI NR_179254.1
Formerly Enterobacter oligotrophica.
Large for a gut microbe: longer than 77% of the 2,354 we have genomes for.
54% G+C, higher than 63% of gut microbes.
To scale: if its ID gene were 1 cm long, its genome would stretch 30 meters. Yours would stretch 21 kilometers. One reference genome; strains vary. NCBI GCF_009176645.1
What it can do
We don't have capability data for this microbe yet: it isn't in AGORA2's genome models, BacDive's lab tests or NJC19's published research. That's different from “not seen”: nobody has checked.
