sp. nov., isolated from the gut of a cinereous vulture, Free

Abstract

A Gram-stain-positive, facultatively aerobic, spore-forming, oxidase-positive, catalase- and DNase-negative, rod-shaped and motile bacterial strain, AR23208, was isolated from the gut of a cinereous vulture (), collected at Seoul Grand Park Zoo (Republic of Korea). Strain AR23208 grew optimally at 25–30 °C, at pH 7 and in the absence of NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that strain AR23208 shared 98.2 and 97.1 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity with THMBR28 and NIO-S10, respectively. The predominant fatty acids (>10 %) of strain AR23208 were iso-C, summed feature 4 (anteiso-C B and/or iso-C I) and anteiso-C and the primary isoprenoid quinone was menaquinone-7. The polar lipids were phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylmonomethylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, six unidentified phospholipids, an unidentified aminophospholipid and ten unidentified lipids. The sugar components of the cell wall peptidoglycan were ribose and arabinose. The amino acids of the cell wall peptidoglycan were -alanine, aspartic acid, -diaminopimelic acid, -glutamic acid, glycine and -lysine. The OrthoANI value based on the complete genome sequence of strain AR23208 and the closest related strain, THMBR28, was 80.4 %. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain AR23208 was 56.0 mol%. Based on the data presented in the current study, strain AR23208 is considered to represent a novel species of the genus , for which the name sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is AR23208 (=KCTC 33929=JCM 32188).
