Paenibacillus faecis sp. nov., isolated from human faeces

Abstract: A spore-forming, rod-shaped Gram-strain-positive bacterium, strain 656.84T , was isolated from human faeces in 1984. It contained anteiso-C 15 : 0 as the major cellular fatty acid, mesodiaminopimelic acid was found in the cell wall peptidoglycan, the polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol and aminophospholipids as the major components, and the predominant menaquinone was MK-7. The DNA G+C content was 52.9 mol%.

“…Since then the number of descriptions of clinical infections caused by the environmental bacteria Paenibacillus has increased [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], [19], [20]. However, to our knowledge, literature regarding prevalence of these microorganisms in humans is limited.…”

“…The genus contains 211 recognized species [2] (http://www.bacterio.net/paenibacillus.html). Only 22 species has been reported from human clinical samples: P. alvei, P. faecis, P. ihumii, P. konsidensis, P. larvae, P. lautus, P. macerans, P. massiliensis, P. pasadenensis, P. polymyxa, P. provencensis, P. residui, P. sanguinis, P. sputi, P. thiaminolyticus, P. timonensis, P. turicensis, P. urinalis and P. vulneris [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10], [11], [12], [13], [14], [15], [16], [17], [18], as well as two species still officially not recognized ( P. honkongensis and P. dakarensis ) [19], [20] and recently P. antibioticophila [21]. Those strains were recognized as responsible for true infections or transient infections colonizing blood and other human sources, or as a possible contamination occurring during the process of obtaining the sample.…”

“…For endospore observation, bacterial strains were grown on specific spore-forming medium (10 g beef extract, 2 g yeast extract, 0.04 g manganese II sulphate monohydrate, 25 g agar, pH 7.2) for two days at 25 °C [4] . Ultrastructural characteristics were observed using a JEM-1010 transmission electron microscope (JEOL USA Inc., Peabody, MA, USA).…”

“…At the time of writing in October 2019, there are over 249 recognized species and four subspecies (www.bacterio.net/paenibacillus.html) [2]. Species of the genus Paenibacillus have been isolated from diverse habitats, such as soil [3–6], fresh water [7, 8], human faeces [9], pit mud [10], saline silt [11], warm springs [12], lake sediment [13] and plant rhizosphere [14–16]. Members of the genus Paenibacillus share the common characteristics of having spore-forming cells containing menaquinone 7 as a major or sole respiratory quinone and anteiso-C 15 : 0 as the major fatty acid.…”
