Overview

  • Mesosutterella multiformis is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, strictly anaerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. The DNA G+C content is 56.9%. Mesosutterella multiformis is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Sakamoto2018b)



  • This organism has been recovered from human faeces (Sakamoto2018b). Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
