<i>Massilimicrobiota timonensis</i> gen. nov., sp. nov. strain Marseille-P2264 is a new species from <i>Firmicutes</i> phylum isolated from the human gut. Its genome was 2,849,574 bp-long with a 31.8% G+C content. The closest species based on 16S rRNA sequence was <i>Longibaculum muris</i> with 95.6% sequence similarity. Considering phenotypic features, 16S rRNA sequence and comparative genome studies, we proposed Marseille-P2264 as the type strain of <i>Massilimicrobiota timonensis</i> gen. nov ...[more]
