Ruthenibacterium is a genus of Gram-negative, obligately anaerobic, non-spore-forming bacteria within the family Oscillospiraceae. The genus was first described in 2016 with the identification of its type species, Ruthenibacterium lactatiformans, isolated from human feces.[1]
Taxonomy
The genus Ruthenibacterium was established by Shkoporov et al. in 2016 following the isolation and characterization of two novel strains (585-1T and 668) from the feces of healthy human subjects. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences indicated that these strains formed a distinct lineage within the family Oscillospiraceae, with less than 92% sequence similarity to their closest relatives, including Anaerofilum pentosovorans and Gemmiger formicilis.[1]
Species
Currently, the genus comprises two validly published species:[2]
- Ruthenibacterium intestinale Hitch et al. 2025
- Ruthenibacterium lactatiformans Shkoporov et al. 2016
