RT Journal Article SR Electronic(1) A1 Thawai, Chitti A1 Kudo, TakujiYR 2012 T1 Promicromonospora thailandica sp. nov., isolated from marine sediment JF International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, VO 62 IS Pt_9 SP 2140 OP 2144 DO https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.035972-0 PB Microbiology Society, SN 1466-5034, AB A novel actinomycete, strain S7F-02T, which produced primary branched hyphae and fragmented into V- and Y-shaped bacillary cells, was isolated from marine sediment collected in the Andaman Sea, Trang Province, Thailand. Lysine was found to be the diagnostic diamino acid in the cell-wall peptidoglycan. The whole-cell sugars of strain S7F-02T were ribose, arabinose and glucose. The characteristic phospholipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylinositol. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4). The predominant cellular fatty acids were anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C15 : 0. The G+C content of the genomic DNA of strain S7F-02T was 70.6 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that strain S7F-02T should be classified in the genus Promicromonospora . This strain formed a close association with Promicromonospora citrea DSM 43110T, with which it shared 99.2 % 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity. DNA–DNA hybridization data together with physiological and biochemical properties showed that strain S7F-02T could be readily distinguished from its closest phylogenetic relatives. On the basis of these phenotypic and genotypic data, strain S7F-02T is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Promicromonospora , for which the name Promicromonospora thailandica sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is S7F-02T ( = BCC 41922T = JCM 17130T)., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.035972-0
