Luteibaculum oceani gen. nov., sp. nov., a carotenoid-producing, lipolytic bacterium isolated from surface seawater, and emended description of the genus Owenweeksia Lau et al. 2005 Shahina, Mariyam and Hameed, Asif and Lin, Shih-Yao and Lai, Wei-An and Liu, You-Cheng and Hsu, Yi-Han and Young, Chiu-Chung,, 63, 4765-4770 (2013), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.054635-0, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= A yellow-pigmented, Gram-staining-negative, strictly aerobic, rod-shaped, non-flagellated, non-spore-forming, lipolytic and gliding marine bacterium designated strain CC-AMWY-103BT was isolated from surface seawater collected at Kending, Taiwan. The strain shared the highest 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 89.4 % with Owenweeksia hongkongensis JCM 12287T and Brumimicrobium mesophilum YH207T, and established a distinct phyletic lineage associated with the members of the family Cryomorphaceae . The polar lipid profile of strain CC-AMWY-103BT consisted of phosphatidylethanolamine, ten unidentified lipids and four unidentified aminolipids. The major fatty acids (>5 % of the total) were iso-C15 : 0, iso-C15 : 1 G, C15 : 1ω5c, iso-C17 : 0 3-OH and C15 : 1ω8c. The DNA G+C content was 44.2±0.3 mol%. The predominant respiratory quinone was menaquinone-6 (MK-6) and the major polyamine was spermidine. Based on its genetic, phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic distinctiveness, strain CC-AMWY-103BT is proposed to represent a distinct member of the family Cryomorphaceae , for which the name Luteibaculum oceani gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed; the type strain of Luteibaculum oceani is CC-AMWY-103BT ( = JCM 18817T = BCRC 80551T). An emended description of the genus Owenweeksia is also proposed., language=, type=
