DESCRIPTION OF LIMOSILACTOBACILLUS MUCOSAE COMB. NOV.

Limosilactobacillus mucosae (mu.co’sae. N.L. gen. n. mucosae of mucosa).

Basonym: Lactobacillus mucosae Roos et al. 2000 , 256 VP

Many strains of the species carry a mucus binding protein, a putative colonization factor of L. mucosae . The genome size of the type strain is 2.25 Mbp. The mol% G+C content of DNA is 46.4.

Isolated from the intestine of a pig [ 264] but also found in the intestine of other vertebrates including humans, type II sourdough, and related cereal fermentations.

The type strain is S32 T = CCUG 43179 T = CIP 106485 T = DSM 13345 T = JCM 12515 T .

Genome sequence accession number: AZEQ00000000.

16S rRNA gene accession number: AF126738 .
