Huge numbers of bacteria reside in the digestive tract of most animals. During an investigation into the bacterial diversity of primates, strain YIM 102668 was isolated. When neighbour-joining phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences was conducted, strain YIM 102668 formed a cluster within the family and in a lineage not associated with any known group of previously proposed genera. Closely related genera were (94.8 %), (94.8 %), (highest 94.6 %), (90.9 %) and (90.6 %). In addition, strain YIM 102668 contained MK-6 as the predominant respiratory quinone and iso-C as the major fatty acid. The major polar lipid was phosphatidylethanolamine and the genomic DNA G+C content was 30.6 mol%. These chemotaxonomic characterizations confirmed that strain YIM 102668 belonged to the family . Supported by the results of phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic analyses, we propose that strain YIM 102668 represents a novel genus, for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 102668 (=KCTC 52109=CCTCC AB 2016016).

A Gram-stain-positive bacterium, designated as YIM 134068, was isolated from a lichen. Strain YIM 134068 was non-motile, non-spore forming, coccus shaped, oxidase, and catalase positive. Cells could grow at 10-40 °C (optimum 28 °C) and pH 7.

Objective: This secondary analysis examined changes in plasma concentrations of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and serotonin following multi-species probiotic supplementation versus placebo in Australian adults with subthreshold depression and investigated the potential relationships between neurotransmitter changes and mental health outcomes.
Methods: In a 12-week, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial, 39 participants took daily doses of one capsule (i.e.

Leptospirosis is a significant zoonotic disease caused by pathogenic spirochetes of the genus Leptospira. Attenuated Salmonella strains represent a promising vector for the development of safe and effective vaccines capable of eliciting a specific immune response. A chimeric Leptospira antigen (rQ1), previously described and based on the gene sequences of lipL32, lemA, and ligAni, was cloned into the pTECH2 vector for antigen expression in Salmonella Typhimurium LVR01.

Objectives: Secreted chorismate mutase (S-CM) is known to act as a virulence factor in mycobacterial infections by inhibiting macrophage apoptosis. This study aims to investigate genetic variations in S-CM among Mycobacterium intracellulare strains and evaluate their influence on the clinical progression of M. intracellulare-pulmonary disease (PD).
