Escherichia coli 1-392-07_S4_C1

Escherichia coli 1-392-07_S4_C1 is a Gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium that typically exists in pairs or as single cells. This strain is classified as a facultative anaerobe, indicating its ability to thrive in both aerobic and anaerobic environments, which is a common characteristic of many Escherichia coli strains. It has an optimal growth temperature of 37.0°C, aligning with the typical mammalian host body temperature, suggesting an adaptation to life within host organisms. The habitat of E. coli 1-392-07_S4_C1 is primarily host-associated, implying that it is commonly found in association with living organisms, potentially in the intestinal tract of mammals. This ecological niche may facilitate interactions with the host's microbiome, influencing both microbial diversity and host health. The ability to adapt to different oxygen conditions further enhances its survival and metabolic versatility in diverse environments within the host. While the virulence and specific interactions of E. coli 1-392-07_S4_C1 are not detailed here, its characteristics suggest that it could play a role in maintaining gut homeostasis or contributing to nutrient absorption in its host. Understanding the traits and behavior of this strain could provide insights into the complex dynamics of host-microbe interactions and the importance of microbial adaptability in varying physiological conditions.
