Names Prevotella ruminicola 23
Accession numbers NC_014033
Background Prevotella ruminicola 23 is an obligate anaerobic bacterium that contributes to hemicellulose utilization within the bovine rumen. It is one of the most commonly isolated species from rumen contents and possesses the capacity to degrade plant cell wall polysaccharides, proteins, and peptides, contributing to the utilization of noncellulosic polysaccharides, such as starch and xylan (adapted from PMID 19304844).
