gen. nov., sp. nov., an actinomycete of the family containing 3,4-dihydroxydiaminopimelic acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan Free

Abstract

An actinomycete strain, K12-0602, was isolated from the root of a plant in Japan. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of strain K12-0602 showed that it had a close relationship with members of the family and the 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity values between strain K12-0602 and type strains of type species of 27 genera belonging to the family were below 96.2 %. MK-9 (H) and MK-9 (H) were detected as major menaquinones, and galactose, xylose, mannose and ribose were present in the whole-cell hydrolysate. The acyl type of the peptidoglycan was glycolyl. Major fatty acids were iso-C, iso-C, Cω9 and anteiso-C. Phosphatidylethanolamine was detected as the phospholipid corresponding to phospholipid type II. The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 67 mol%. Analyses of the cell-wall peptidoglycan by TLC and LC/MS showed that it was composed of alanine, glycine, hydroxylglutamic acid and an unknown amino acid, which was subsequently determined to be 3,4-dihydroxydiaminopimelic acid using instrumental analyses, including NMR and mass spectrometry. On the basis of the phylogenetic analysis and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain K12-0602 represents a novel species of a new genus in the family , for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of the type species is K12-0602 ( = NBRC 109834 = DSM 45988). This is the first report, to our knowledge, of 3,4-dihydroxydiaminopimelic acid being found as a diamino acid in bacterial cell-wall peptidoglycan.
