| Description | The Clostridiales bacterium 1_7_47FAA is a Gram-positive, rod-shaped microorganism that thrives in mesophilic temperatures, categorized as a Chemoheterotroph, and can be found in all body sites across various species. As an Obligate Anaerobe, this bacterium requires the absence of oxygen to survive and grow. The Gram-positive characteristic indicates that the bacterium has a thick peptidoglycan layer in its cell wall, which retains the crystal violet stain used in the Gram staining procedure, appearing purple under a microscope. Its rod-shaped morphology is typical of many bacterial species, allowing for efficient nutrient uptake and division. The mesophilic temperature preference suggests that the bacterium grows best in moderate temperatures, between 20-45°C, which is common for many microbial species. As a Chemoheterotroph, the bacterium relies on organic compounds for energy and carbon sources, breaking down complex molecules to sustain its metabolic processes. The presence of Clostridiales bacterium 1_7_47FAA in all body sites across various species highlights its adaptability and ability to thrive in diverse environments. The bacterium's obligate anaerobic nature necessitates specialized environments, such as the gut or deep-sea sediments, where oxygen is scarce. This microbe plays a crucial role in decomposing organic matter and recycling nutrients, and its unique metabolic capabilities allow it to produce various bioactive compounds, including antimicrobial peptides and volatile organic compounds that can influence the surrounding microbial community. |
