Abstract

A second novel clinical actinobacterial strain, designated IFM 10348, was isolated from the sputum of the same Japanese patient with bacterial pneumonia from whom the type strain of had been isolated. The strains differed in phylogenetic position and drug-resistance profiles. The taxonomic position of strain IFM 10348 was clarified by phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic studies. Phylogenetic analyses based on 16S rRNA gene sequences clearly demonstrated that strain IFM 10348 occupied a distinct clade within the genus and was related closely to DSM 45064 and DSM 44140 (97.3 and 97.1 % similarities, respectively). Strain IFM 10348 was also clearly differentiated from DSM 45064 and DSM 44140 based on and gene sequence similarity values. Strain IFM 10348 had MK-9(H) as the predominant menaquonine, contained -diaminopimelic acid, arabinose, galactose and glucosamine as cell-wall components, and contained Cω9, summed feature 3 (Cω7 and/or Cω6) and C as the major cellular fatty acids. Mycolic acids were present. The DNA G+C content of strain IFM 10348 was 68.0 mol%. DNA–DNA relatedness data coupled with the combination of genotypic and phenotypic data indicated that strain IFM 10348 represents a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is IFM 10348 ( = CCTCC M2011245 = NCCB 100436).
