gen. nov., sp. nov., a new member of the family Free

Abstract

A beige-pigmented bacterium (strain CCUG 53761A) was isolated from human blood from an 85-year-old man in Göteborg, Sweden. Comparative analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that this bacterium displayed <95 % similarity to all described species of the genera of the family . It grouped within the radiation of the genus , but showed only 93.0–94.8 % similarity to type strains of members of this genus ( subsp. , 94.8 %; subsp. , 94.2 %; subsp. , 93.4 %). This discrimination was supported by chemotaxonomic differences. The polyamine pattern consisted of the predominant compound putrescine, moderate amounts of spermidine and minor to trace amounts of spermine and cadaverine; 2-hydroxyputrescine was not detectable. The quinone system was ubiquinone Q-8 with minor amounts of Q-7. The polar lipid profile was composed of the major lipids diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine and moderate amounts of phosphatidylglycerol and an unknown phospholipid; minor lipids were also detected. The fatty acid profile, with large amounts of C and C cyclo and the absence of C 2-OH as hydroxylated fatty acid, also differed significantly from those reported for species. On the basis of these data, it is proposed that strain CCUG 53761A represents a novel genus and species, for which the name gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of is CCUG 53761A =CCM 7698.
