''Syntrophococcus sucromutans'' is a Gram-negative strictly anaerobic chemoorganotrophic Firmicute. These bacteria can be found forming small chains in the habitat where it was first isolated, the rumen of cows. It is the type strain of genus ''Syntrophococcus'' and it has an uncommon one-carbon metabolic pathway, forming acetate from formate as a product of sugar oxidation. ==Name and Discovery== The genus name ''Syntrophococcus'' is combination of Greek terms: ''syn'', meaning “together”, ''trophos'', meaning “feeder”, and ''kokkos'', meaning “berry”. The species name ''sucromutans'' is a combination of New Latin ''sucro'', referring to any sugar, and Latin ''mutans'', meaning “changing”. ''S. sucromutans'' was first isolated by Krumholz and Bryant from the rumen of a steer. They made a basal medium consisting of 5% rumen fluid and bicarbonate buffer incubated in 4:1 N2:CO2 conditions. The researchers were looking to find a bacterium that demethoxylated phenolic acids in the gut of ruminants, and this species was found to be the most prevalent prokaryote in the rumen to do such a process.
