Gordonibacter pamelaeae is a species of Gram-positive, strictly anaerobic, non-spore-forming bacteria in the family Eggerthellaceae. It is the type species of the genus Gordonibacter.[1]
Description
The type strain, 7-10-1-b, was isolated from a colonic biopsy obtained from a patient with Crohn's disease.[2] Its cells are short rods or coccobacilli, and growth occurs under anaerobic conditions at 37 °C. The organism is catalase-positive.[2]
Motility may vary among strains. The type strain was reported to be motile by means of a subpolar flagellum, whereas a bloodstream isolate described in 2010 was non-motile.[2][3]
Metabolism
G. pamelaeae can transform ellagic acid under anaerobic culture conditions. The metabolites produced sequentially include urolithin M-5, urolithin M-6, and urolithin C.[4]
Clinical isolation
A 2010 case report documented G. pamelaeae bacteremia in a patient with disseminated rectosigmoid carcinoma. The organism was recovered in pure culture from an anaerobic blood-culture bottle and identified using phenotypic testing and 16S rRNA gene sequencing. The patient recovered following treatment with amoxicillin–clavulanate.[3]
Taxonomy
The specific epithet honours Pamela Lee Oxley, a biochemist, environmentalist, and educator.[1]
