Noncontiguous finished genome sequence and description of Intestinimonas massiliensis sp. nov strain GD2^T , the second Intestinimonas species cultured from the human gut.

ABSTRACT: Intestinimonas massiliensis sp. nov strain GD2^T is a new species of the genus Intestinimonas (the second, following Intestinimonas butyriciproducens gen. nov., sp. nov). First isolated from the gut microbiota of a healthy subject of French origin using a culturomics approach combined with taxono-genomics, it is strictly anaerobic, nonspore-forming, rod-shaped, with catalase- and oxidase-negative reactions. Its growth was observed after preincubation in an anaerobic blood culture enriched with sheep blood (5%) and rumen fluid (5%), incubated at 37°C. Its phenotypic and genotypic descriptions are presented in this paper with a full annotation of its genome sequence. This genome consists of 3,104,261 bp in length and contains 3,074 predicted genes, including 3,012 protein-coding ge
