Longispora albida gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel genus of the family Micromonosporaceae
Abstract
A novel actinomycete strain was isolated from a soil sample collected in Japan by using gellan gum as a solidifying agent. Spore-chains from the short sporophores were straight and each had more than 20 spores per chain. Spores possessed no motility. Cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid, glycine, alanine and glutamic acid; whole-cell hydrolysates contained arabinose, galactose and xylose. The acyl type of the peptidoglycan was glycolyl. The predominant menaquinones were MK-10(H(4)) and MK-10(H(6)); MK-10(H(8)) was a minor component. Mycolic acids were not detected. The diagostic phospholipid was phosphatidylethanolamine. Cellular fatty acids included heptadecenoic (C(17 : 1)), 14-methylpentadecanoic (i-C(16 : 0)) and octadecenoic (C(18 : 1)) acids. The G+C content of the DNA was 70 mol%. On the basis of morphogical and chemotaxonomic properties and phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rDNA sequence data, it is proposed that this strain should be classified in a novel genus and species, Longispora albida gen. nov., sp. nov., in the family MICROMONOSPORACEAE: The type strain is K97-0003(T) (=NRRL B-24201(T)=JCM 11711(T)).
