Trichosporon asahii
No reference ID-gene sequence in NCBI yet Data sources
Like ours, its cells keep their DNA in a nucleus, and genomes like that run bigger, so we don’t rank it with the gut bacteria and archaea.
To scale: if its ID gene were 1 cm long, its genome would stretch 163 meters. Yours would stretch 21 kilometers. One reference genome; strains vary. NCBI GCF_000293215.1
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.
