Peptoclostridium acidaminophilum is a Gram-positive bacterium species in the family Peptostreptococcaceae, notable for being an amino acid-degrading obligate anaerobe producing or utilizing H₂ or formate. It is rod-shaped and motile by a polar to subpolar flagellum. Its type strain is al-2.^[2] It produces several relevant enzymes.
