Article Title: Addressing controversy in Fusobacterium nomenclature: what exactly does “ F. nucleatum ” refer to?

Figure Lengend Snippet: Fusobacterium lineage analysis via phylogeny and average nucleotide identity. (Top) A kSNP whole-genome parsimony phylogenetic tree of Fusobacterium genomes ( n =224) within the nine GTDB lineages phylogenetically close to the F. nucleatum sensu lato subspecies. Each lineage is highlighted by a different background color. For each, the historic nomenclature and our proposed name with accompanying three-letter abbreviation are shown. (Bottom) a heatmap of average nucleotide identity (ANI) values as calculated by fastANI .

Article Snippet: For example, while F. nucleatum sensu lato are enriched in colorectal cancer (CRC), , recent studies have shown that it is specifically F. nucleatum subsp. animalis that is significantly associated with CRC., , , Recent work from our group aligned with these observations, where we showed that even though isolates identified as F. nucleatum subsp. animalis by 16S rRNA sequencing formed two distinct lineages, only one of these lineages, “ Fna C2” (represented by the F. nucleatum subsp. animalis type strain ATCC 51191), was enriched in CRC.

Figure Lengend Snippet: The qualitative and quantitative coaggregation assay for E. faecalis ( Ef ) and F. nucleatum ( Fn ) . (a) Coaggregation assay to screen eight different F. nucleatum ATCC23726 outer-membrane protein mutants for defective coaggregation phenotype with E. faecalis OG1RF. The arrow points to the fap2 mutant with binding deficiency. (b) Coaggregation assay to screen sugars and amino acids for their inhibitory efforts on interaction between E. faecalis and F. nucleatum . The arrow points to galactose with inhibitory effort. (c) Microscopic observation of coaggregation between E. faecalis and F. nucleatum under different conditions: a. E. faecalis alone; b. F. nucleatum alone; c. E. faecalis and F. nucleatum ; d. E. faecalis and F. nucleatum fap2 . For each interacting pair, the pictures of 10 random views were taken and 1 representative image was shown. 100X magnification. The scale bar is 10 µm. (d) Spectrophotometric coaggregation assay to quantitatively measure coaggregation between wild type E. faecalis ( Ef WT)/ E. faecalis clinical isolate ( Ef DX1) and wild type F. nucleatum ( Fn WT) and its outer-membrane protein mutants. (e) Spectrophotometric coaggregation assay to quantitatively measure coaggregation between E. faecalis and F. nucleatum in the presence of selected sugars and amino acids, which are D-galactose (Gal), D-Mannose (Man), L-arginine (Arg), L-leucine (Leu) and L-glutamic acid (Glu). All co-aggregation assays have 120 min incubation time. The data presented are based on experiments conducted in triplicate.

F. nucleatum ATCC 23726 viability was tested under different pH conditions in Columbia broth. The data presented are based on experiments conducted in triplicates. WT, wild type. (b) Competition assay under buffered pH condition. Quantitative analysis of the competition effects between E. faecalis ( Ef ) and F. nucleatum ( Fn ) under buffered pH condition. Data are expressed as relative CFU (%) compared with the Fn alone CFU at each timepoint as 100%. Graph shows means and SD of readings from two individual experiments performed in triplicate. Data represent the means and standard deviation of at least three independent experiments. *P < 0.05; ** P < 0.01; *** P < 0.001. WT, wild type.
