Abstract

Three Gram-positive, rod-shaped, oxidase-negative, non-spore-forming, non-motile bacteria (KSS-3Se, KSS-4Se and KSS-10Se) were isolated from a coolant lubricant. 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses revealed almost identical sequences, with only a few (<10 positions) differences for these three isolates. Comparisons showed the highest similarities to NCTC 11862 (97.6 % similarity with strain KSS-3Se). Similarities with other established species were lower than 97.0 %. Chemotaxonomic data studied for strain KSS-3Se [polar lipids – major compounds phosphatidylglycerol and an unknown glycolipid, moderate amounts of phosphatidylinositol and diphosphatidylglycerol; polyamines (small amounts) – major compounds spermidine and spermine; quinones – significant amounts of menaquinones MK-9(H), MK-8(H) and MK-7(H); and major fatty acids – tuberculostearic acid (10-methyl C), C and C 9] were congruent with those reported for . The strain showed differences in phenotype from . DNA–DNA hybridizations between KSS-3Se and DSM 20521 yielded a relatedness of 22.9 % (20.4 % in the reciprocal assay). From these results, it is evident that the organisms represent a novel species, for which the name sp. nov. is proposed (type strain KSS-3Se =DSM 45231 =CCUG 56567 =CCM 7546).
