Abstract

Reverse transcriptase sequencing of 16S ribosomal ribonucleic acid of was performed in order to determine the relationship of this organism to other mycolic acid-containing actinomycetes and coryneform bacteria. The sequence data clearly demonstrate that is a member of the genus Furthermore, showed 100% sequence homology in a large stretch of 1,458 nucleotides with On the basis of the present and previous data we formally propose that be considered a subjective synonym of
