Lineage: Anaerococcus prevotii; Anaerococcus; Clostridiales Family XI; Clostridiales; Firmicutes; Bacteria
General Information: Isolation: Human plasma; Temp: Mesophile; Temp: 37C; Habitat: Host, Mouth microflora, Skin microflora. Anaerococcus prevotii, formerly Peptostreptococcus prevotii, is a member of the normal human gastrointestinal tract. However, it can be isolated from abscesses and other infections and may be considered an opportunistic pathogen.
Subject: NC_006958:828089 Corynebacterium glutamicum ATCC 13032, complete genome
Lineage: Corynebacterium glutamicum; Corynebacterium; Corynebacteriaceae; Actinomycetales; Actinobacteria; Bacteria
General Information: Causes bovine brucellosis. They may be found as members of the normal microflora of humans, where these bacteria find a suitable niche in virtually every anatomic site. This organism is a well-studied soil bacterium of considerable importance in biotechnology, in particular for the fermentative production of L-amino acids for food and fodder industry. The name was originaly given for this species for its ability to produce significant quantities (>100 g per liter) of glutamic acid (glutamate), an important food enhancer that has a meaty taste and flavor. Currently used commercially to produce glutamate and other amino acids (L-lysine) and compounds. The first strain of the species was isolated in 1957 by S. Kinoshita and colleagues while searching for an efficient glutamate-producer.
