Overview

  • Paramuribaculum intestinale is a Gram-negative, non-spore-forming, strictly anaerobic, non-motile, rod-shaped bacterium. It has been detected in at least 1 gut microbiome compilation study or metastudy. The DNA G+C content is 53.1%. Paramuribaculum intestinale is probably a rare gut coloniser. (Lagkouvardos2019)



  • This organism has been recovered from mouse gastrointestinal tract. Pathogenicity status unknown, or very unlikely to be pathogenic. A possible gut commensal.
