Adlercreutzia Equolifaciens Subsp
''Adlercreutzia'' is a genus in the phylum Actinomycetota (Bacteria). Etymology The generic name derives from H. Adlercreutz, a professor at the University of Helsinki in Finland, for his contributions to research on the effects of phytoestrogens on human health. Taxonomy In 2018, Nouioui ''et al.'' proposed merging the genera ''Asaccharobacter, Enterorhabdus'' and ''Parvibacter'' within the genus ''Adlercreutzia'' based on observed clustering of these genera within phylogenetic trees. However, subsequent phylogenetic analyses observed that ''Parvibacter caecicola'' exhibited much deeper branching compared to other ''Adlercreutzia'' species. Additionally, five conserved signature indels (CSIs) present in the proteins excinuclease ABC subunit UvrA, flavodoxin-dependent (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enyl-diphosphate synthase, phosphoribosylformylglycinamidine synthase, Valine—tRNA ligase, valine-tRNA ligase and Cysteine—tRNA ligase, cysteine–tRNA ligase were identified to b ...

Bacteria
Bacteria (; : bacterium) are ubiquitous, mostly free-living organisms often consisting of one Cell (biology), biological cell. They constitute a large domain (biology), domain of Prokaryote, prokaryotic microorganisms. Typically a few micrometres in length, bacteria were among the first life forms to appear on Earth, and are present in most of its habitats. Bacteria inhabit the air, soil, water, Hot spring, acidic hot springs, radioactive waste, and the deep biosphere of Earth's crust. Bacteria play a vital role in many stages of the nutrient cycle by recycling nutrients and the nitrogen fixation, fixation of nitrogen from the Earth's atmosphere, atmosphere. The nutrient cycle includes the decomposition of cadaver, dead bodies; bacteria are responsible for the putrefaction stage in this process. In the biological communities surrounding hydrothermal vents and cold seeps, extremophile bacteria provide the nutrients needed to sustain life by converting dissolved compounds, suc ...
