Abstract

The intestines of mice are colonized by diverse, as-yet-uncultivated bacteria. In this report, we describe the isolation, culture, genotypic and phenotypic characterization, as well as taxonomic classification of three novel anaerobic bacterial strains derived from the caecal contents of C57BL/6J male mice. According to the phenotypic and genotype-based polyphasic taxonomy, we propose three novel species within the family Oscillospiraceae. They are Acutalibacter caecimuris sp. nov. (type strain M00118T=CGMCC 1.18042T=KCTC 25739T), Acutalibacter intestini sp. nov. (type strain M00204T=CGMCC 1.18044T=KCTC 25741T) and Neglectibacter caecimuris sp. nov. (type strain M00184T=CGMCC 1.18043T=KCTC 25740T).
