It grew optimally at 20 °C, pH 7–8 and in the presence of 3 % (w/v) NaCl. The major fatty acid of strain T3246-1T was anteiso-C15 : 0. Major polar lipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. MK-8 was the dominant isoprenoid quinone. The whole-cell sugars were rhamnose, xylose and mannose. The major cell-wall peptidoglycan was lysine. The genomic DNA G+C content of the strain was 71.4 mol%. Results of phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain T3246-1T formed a lineage within the genus Haloactinobacterium and was closely related to Haloactinobacterium album YIM 93306T with 95.99 % similarity. The average nucleotide identity value between strain T3246-1T and Haloactinobacterium album YIM 93306T was 76.65 %. Based on phenotypic and chemotaxonomic characteristics, strain T3246-1T was considered to represent a novel species of the genus Haloactinobacterium , for which the name Haloactinobacterium glacieicola sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is T3246-1T (=CGMCC 1.13535T=JCM 32923T).", }
