Overview

  • Alterileibacterium massiliense, (aka Ileibacterium massiliense), is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, strictly anaerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. The DNA G+C content is 35.9%. Alterileibacterium massiliense is probably a rare gut coloniser.



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