terracoccus luteus gen. nov., sp. nov., an ll-diaminopimelic acid-containing coccoid actinomycete from soil. | a gram-positive, aerobic actinomycete was isolated from soil. spherical cells of this organism occur singly or form packets, which may cluster. the diagnostic diamino acid of the cell wall peptidoglycan is ll-diaminopimelic acid. the predominate menaquinone is mk-8 (h4), and the main fatty acids are 13-methyl tetradecanoic acid and 12-methyl tetradecanoic acid. the diagnostic polar lipids are phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylinositol. the dna base composition is 73 mol% g + c. comparison ... | 1997 | 9336932 |
polyamine profiles within genera of the class actinobacteria with ll-diaminopimelic acid in the peptidoglycan. | polyamine patterns of coryne- and nocardioform representatives of the class actinobacteria with ll-diaminopimelic acid in the peptidoglycan, comprising strains of the genera aeromicrobium, nocardioides, intrasporangium, terrabacter, terracoccus, propioniferax, friedmanniella, microlunatus, luteococcus and sporichthya, were analysed. the different polyamine patterns were in good agreement with the phylogenetic heterogeneity within this group of actinomycetes. strains of the closely related genera ... | 1999 | 10028260 |
arsenicicoccus bolidensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel actinomycete isolated from contaminated lake sediment. | an unknown gram-positive, catalase-positive, facultatively anaerobic, non-spore-forming, coccus-shaped bacterium originating from sediment was characterized using phenotypic, molecular chemical and molecular phylogenetic methods. chemical studies revealed the presence of a cell-wall murein based on ll-diaminopimelic acid (type ll-dpm-glycine(1)), a complex mixture of saturated, monounsaturated and iso- and anteiso-methyl-branched, non-hydroxylated, long-chain cellular fatty acids and tetrahydrog ... | 2004 | 15023982 |
lapillicoccus jejuensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel actinobacterium of the family intrasporangiaceae, isolated from stone. | a novel, yellow-pigmented actinobacterium was isolated from a small stone collected in jeju, republic of korea. the cells of the organism, designated strain r-ac013(t), were gram-positive, aerobic, non-motile cocci that occurred singly or in pairs. the strain showed growth at 10-37 degrees c and ph 4.1-11.1, and tolerated 2 % nacl. on the basis of the 16s rrna gene sequence, the organism was phylogenetically related to members of the genera tetrasphaera (94.6-97.1 % sequence similarity), terraba ... | 2007 | 18048726 |
terrabacter lapilli sp. nov., an actinomycete isolated from stone. | a novel actinomycete, designated strain lr-26t, was isolated from a small stone collected from an agricultural field in jeju, republic of korea. cells of the organism were strictly aerobic, gram-positive, non-motile, short rods. colonies were bright yellow, circular, smooth and translucent. the organism was characterized chemotaxonomically as having ll-diaminopimelic acid in the cell wall, mk-8(h4) as major menaquinone, a polar lipid profile including diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanola ... | 2008 | 18450693 |
humibacillus xanthopallidus gen. nov., sp. nov. | strain kv-663(t) was isolated from a soil sample collected from a paddy field in japan by using gpm agar plates. strain ym21-029 was obtained from a lake sediment sample by using hsv agar. the two novel strains were gram-positive, catalase-positive, rod-shaped bacteria with ll-diaminopimelic acid as the diagnostic diamino acid of the cell-wall peptidoglycan. the major menaquinone was mk-8(h(4)). mycolic acids were not detected. the g+c content of the dna was 69-70 mol%. 16s rrna gene sequence an ... | 2008 | 18599692 |
terrabacter aeriphilus sp. nov., isolated from an air sample. | a novel actinomycete, designated strain 5414t-18(t), was isolated from an air sample collected from the taean region, korea. the strain contained oxidase and grew in the presence of 7 % nacl. a neighbour-joining tree constructed on the basis of the 16s rrna gene sequence showed that strain 5414t-18(t) is a member of the genus terrabacter, sharing 97.8-98.3 % 16s rrna gene sequence similarities to type strains of species of the genus terrabacter (98.3 % sequence similarity with terrabacter lapill ... | 2010 | 19666794 |
