Systemic characterization of the human gut microbiota highlighted its vast therapeutic potential. Despite having enormous potential, the non-availability of their culture representatives created a bottleneck to understand the concept of microbiome-based therapeutics. The present study is aimed to isolate and evaluate the probiotic potential of a human gut isolate. Physiochemical, morphological, and phylogenetic characterization of a human gut isolate identifies it as a rod-shaped gram-negative microbe taxonomically affiliated with the Cytobacillus genus, having an optimal growth at 37°C in a partially alkaline environment (pH 8.0). This human gut isolate showed continuous growth in the presence of salts (up to 7% NaCl and 10% KCl), antibiotics, metals and metalloids [silver nitrate (up to 2 mM); lead acetate (up to 2 mM); sodium arsenate (up to 10 mM); potassium dichromate (up to 2 mM)], gastric and intestinal conditions, diverse temperature (25–50°C), and pH (5–9) conditions making it fit to survive in the highly variable gut environment. Genomic characterization identified the presence of gene clusters for diverse bio-catalytic activity, stress response, and antimicrobial activity, as well as it indicated the absence of pathogenic gene islands. A combination of functional features like anti-amylase, anti-lipase, glutenase, prolyl endopeptidase, lactase, bile salt hydrolase, cholesterol oxidase, and anti-pathogenic activity is indicative of its probiotic potential in various disorders. This was further substantiated by the CaCo-2 cell line assay confirming its cellular adherence and biosafety. Conclusively, human gut isolate possessed significant probiotic potential that can be used to promote animal and human health.
