Dolosigranulum pigrum explained
Dolosigranulum pigrum is a Gram-positive bacterium from the genus of Dolosigranulum.[1] Dolosigranulum pigrum can cause infections in the upper respiratory tract and nosocomial pneumonia and sepsis.[2] [3] [4] The metabolism of this organism has been reconstructed. It is available as a genome-scale metabolic model, which indicates incomplete biochemical pathways within the central carbon metabolism.[5] Consequently, its metabolism depends on other members of its microbial habitat, such as Staphylococcus aureus, whose growth D. pigrum negatively impacts..[6]
