Species Intestinicoccus colisanansTs

Etymology
[co.li.sa'nans] L. neut. n. colon, great gut, colon; L. part. adj. sanans, healing; N.L. part. adj. colisanans, colon-healing
Nomenclatural type
NCBI Assembly: GCA_021029595.1 Ts
Reference Strain
MH27-2
Description
Intestinicoccus colisanans strain MH27-2 was recovered from faeces collected from a healthy human donor. The strain formed raised creamy white/milky colonies with an entire margin on agar and was observed as Gram-variable coccoid/ovoid cells that were often present as pairs or short chains. The gene repertoire of Intestinicoccus colisanans indicate it is likely a saccharolytic gut bacterium.
