Overview

---

Acidaminococcus timonensis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, anaerobic, non-motile, coccus bacterium. It has been detected in at least 2 gut microbiome compilation studies or metastudies. Acidaminococcus timonensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Ricaboni2017)

This organism has been recovered from human faeces (Bilen2018e). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
