A Gram-negative obligate anaerobe that exemplifies the commensal-pathobiont spectrum. B. vulgatus is a common component of the healthy gut microbiota, yet is significantly enriched in colorectal cancer and depression, suggesting a context-dependent pathogenic potential.…
Escherichia is a genus of Gram-negative, facultatively anaerobic bacteria in the Enterobacteriaceae family. The primary species E. coli is simultaneously the most studied bacterium in biology and one of the most consistently enriched organisms in disease-associated micr…
A family within the Firmicutes phylum (order Clostridiales, formerly Clostridium cluster XIVa) that serves as a sentinel indicator of gut health -- its depletion is the single most consistent microbiome signature across nearly every disease represented in this wiki. The…
This page serves as the family-level hub for Lachnospiraceae, connecting the individual genus and species pages (roseburia, blautia, anaerostipes, eubacterium rectale) with the overarching ecological and metabolic framework that defines the family. For the primary entit…
Lactobacillus iners is a Gram-positive, facultatively anaerobic bacterium that dominates the vaginal microbiome of many women worldwide, defining Community State Type III (CST-III) in vaginal microbiome classification. For decades, all vaginal Lactobacillus species were…

A Gram-positive obligate anaerobe that has emerged as a pro-inflammatory pathobiont enriched across multiple disease states including crohns disease, depression, and multiple sclerosis. R. gnavus produces a species-specific inflammatory polysaccharide that activates int…
