Distinctive spore architecture and developmental biology of <i>Turicibacter sanguinis</i> reveal unexpected diversity among gut spore formers

2026-01-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Sporulation is a widespread but incompletely characterized trait among gut commensals, where it underpins microbial persistence, transmission, and ecological resilience. Most insights into spore biology derive from Bacilli and Clostridia, yet little is known about sporulation in phylogenetically distant gut-associated lineages. Turicibacter sanguinis , a strict anaerobe linked to host serotonin...
