sp. nov., isolated from an anal swab of a male harbour seal () No Access

Abstract

A polyphasic taxonomic study was performed on an unidentified previously described -like Gram-positive strain 2701 isolated from an anal swab of a dead male harbour seal. Comparative 16S rRNA sequencing showed that the bacterium belonged to the genus in the family . The genome sequence of the strain was obtained by Borowiak . [ 1 ]. The genome had a G+C content of 49 mol% and a total length of 1.94 Mb. The presence of the major menaquinone MK-9(H) supported the affiliation of the isolate with the genus . The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol and an unidentified phospholipid as major components and two unidentified lipids, a further unidentified phospholipid, two unidentified phosphoglycolipids as well as phosphatidylglycerol. The major fatty acids were C, C and C. Biochemical and phylogenetic analyses clearly distinguished the isolate from other members of the genus and closely related other species. Based on these results, it is proposed that the unknown sp. strain 2701 should be classified as representing a novel species with the name sp. nov. The type strain is 2701 (=DSM 112952=LMG 32446).
