The strain was Gram-stain-positive, non-motile, non-pigmented, non-spore-forming, and cells were oval to rod-shaped. Strain 27-44T grew at 20–40 °C (optimal at 37 °C) and at pH 6.0–10 (optimal at 6.0–8.0). The major polar lipids were one phospholipid, two glycolipids, two aminophospholipids and one unidentified lipid. The major cellular fatty acids of strain 27-44T were C16 : 0 and C17 : 0 2-OH. The end product of glucose fermentation was mainly butyric acid. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain 27-44T was a member of the genus Blautia and phylogenetically closely related to Blautia obeum ATCC 29174T (with 97.8 % seque nce similarity). The genome of strain 27-44T was 3.5 Mbp with a DNA G+C content of 42.36 mol%. A total of 3436 genes were predicted and, of these, 3133 genes were annotated by KEGG. On the basis of phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic comparisons, strain 27-44T represents a novel species within the genus Blautia , for which the name Blautia intestinalis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is 27-44T= CGMCC 1.5285T=NBRC 113774T.", }
