Paraprevotella clam gen. nov., sp. nov. and Paraprevotella xylaniphila sp. nov., members of the family 'Prevotellaceae' isolated from human faeces
Two anaerobic, non-spore-forming, pleomorphic, Gram-negative rods, designated YIT 11840 super(T) and YIT 11841 super(T), were isolated from human faeces. The organisms were catalase-negative, produced succinic and acetic acids as end products of glucose metabolism and had DNA G+C contents of approxi...

| Zusammenfassung: | Two anaerobic, non-spore-forming, pleomorphic, Gram-negative rods, designated YIT 11840 super(T) and YIT 11841 super(T), were isolated from human faeces. The organisms were catalase-negative, produced succinic and acetic acids as end products of glucose metabolism and had DNA G+C contents of approximately 48-49 mol%. Although the phenotypic characteristics of these two strains were very similar, analysis of their 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that they are only distantly related (93.8%), indicating that they represent two different species. A comparative sequence analysis revealed that these two species are members of the family 'Prevotellaceae' but are phylogenetically distant ( |
