Overview

  • Desnuesiella massiliensis is a Gram-positive, non-spore-forming, facultatively anaerobic, motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. The DNA G+C content is 32.1%. Desnuesiella massiliensis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Hadjadj2016)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces (child suffering from kwashiorkor - Hadjadj2016). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
