OVERVIEW:

Clavel, T., Charrier, C., Wenning, M., and Haller, D. ."Parvibacter caecicola gen. nov., sp. nov., a bacterium of the family Coriobacteriaceae isolated from the caecum of a mouse.." Int. J. Syst. Evol. Microbiol. (2013) 63:2642-2648. A single strain, NR06(T), was isolated from the intestine of a TNF(deltaARE) mouse. Based on phylogenetic analysis of partial 16S rRNA gene sequences, strain NR06(T) belongs in the family Coriobacteriaceae within the Actinobacteria. The most closely related species with validly published names are members of the genera Adlercreutzia, Asaccharobacter and Enterorhabdus (<96 % sequence similarity). Strain NR06(T) was characterized by a high prevalence of monomethylmenaquinone-6 (MMK-6; 76 %) and the presence of meso-diaminopimelic acid in the cell wall. One of the major cellular fatty acids of strain NR06(T) was C15 : 0 ISO. Glucose was detected as a whole cell sugar. Strain NR06(T) was resistant to the antibiotic colistin and was positive for arginine and leucine arylamidase activity.
