摘要

Three novel bacterial strains obtained from human fecal samples were characterized for their taxonomic classification and probiotic potential. The strains included one Gram-stain-positive (B2-R-112T) and two Gram-stain-negative (TA-V-105T and B2-R-115) strains; all were anaerobic and non-motile. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences placed them within the genera Coprococcus, Parabacteroides, and Akkermansia. Specifically, B2-R-112T showed 97.7% sequence similarity to Coprococcus catus L8T, TA-V-105T showed 97.8% to Parabacteroides goldsteinii DSM 19448T, and B2-R-115 exhibited 99.6% sequence similarity to "Akkermansia massiliensis" Marseille P6666T. The genome sizes were 3,311,086 bp, 7,396,255 bp, and 3,288,486 bp, with G + C contents of 43.9%, 43.2%, and 57.8%, respectively. All strains demonstrated strong survival at pH 2.0–3.0 and robust bile salt tolerance (0.3% w/v oxgall) after 4 h, maintaining high viability in simulated gastric (pH 2.5, 4 h) and intestinal (pH 8.0, 6 h) fluids. They also exhibited significant antioxidant, antidiabetic, and anti-inflammatory activities. In silico DNA–DNA hybridization (dDDH) and average nucleotide identity (ANI) analyses, using thresholds of ≥ 70% and ≥ 95%, respectively, supported the classification of strain B2-R-112T and strain TA-V-105T as novel species. Based on these phenotypic, genomic, and phylogenetic analyses, we propose the classification of these potential probiotic strains as novel species: Coprococcus intestinalis sp. nov. (type strain B2-R-112T = KCTC 25419T = CGMCC 1.17967T and Parabacteroides caecihominis) sp. nov. (type strain TA-V-105T = KCTC 25451T = CGMCC 1.17989T.
