MIGS Cultured Bacterial/Archaeal sample from Lactobacillus gasseri 202-4
Lactobacillus gasseri 202-4
Lactobacillus gasseri appears to be the main species of lactobacilli that inhabits the human gastrointestinal tract. It is a rod-shaped, gram-positive anaerobe. Of the lactobacilli, it is the most amenable to DNA introduction and manipulation which should prove useful in the functional genomic analysis of this species. It has been shown to be an effective probiotic in suppressing Helicobacter pylori infections in humans. This strain was isolated from the human vaginal cavity.
