Biology:Turicibacter

From HandWiki

Turicibacter is a genus in the Bacillota phylum of bacteria that has most commonly been found in the guts of animals.[1] The genus is named after the city in which it was first isolated from the blood of a human, Zurich (Latin = Turicum), Switzerland.[2]

Phylogeny

The position of Turicibacter within the Bacillota could not be resolved using 16S rRNA gene-based analyses. However, it was tentatively placed in the class Bacilli, then the class Erysipelotrichia.[3]

In a tree built using a concatenated protein alignment containing data from two draft Turicibacter genomes, the group was placed at the base of the class Bacilli.[4] Later analyses that also included amino acid sequences predicted by a complete Turicibacter genome came to the same conclusion.[1]

The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN)[5] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).[6]
