| actinopolymorpha singaporensis gen. nov., sp. nov., a novel actinomycete from the tropical rainforest of singapore. | a novel actinomycete was isolated from soil in the tropical rainforest of singapore. the cells of this actinomycete are highly pleomorphic. in the early stages of growth, most cells are of irregular squarish shape and varied sizes. cells remain attached after cell division, often forming chains or aggregates of a few cells. cells at the end of a chain tend to elongate. with prolonged cultivation, cells show different degrees of elongation and enlargement, producing branched hyphae of uneven thic ... | 2001 | 11321092 |
| actinopolymorpha rutila sp. nov., isolated from a forest soil. | a gram-positive, aerobic actinomycete, designated strain yim 45725(t), was isolated from a forest soil sample in yunnan province, china. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences indicated that the isolate was a member of the family nocardioidaceae and was related most closely to actinopolymorpha singaporensis im 7744(t) (99.4 % 16s rrna gene sequence similarity). chemotaxonomic data, including cell-wall components, menaquinones and polar lipids, supported the affiliation of strain ... | 2008 | 18842872 |
| actinopolymorpha alba sp. nov., isolated from a rhizosphere soil. | a gram-positive, milk-white coloured, aerobic strain, yim 48868t, was isolated from the rhizosphere soil of maytenus hookeri loes in xishuangbanna, china. 16s rrna gene sequence similarity studies showed that strain yim 48868t was a member of the genus actinopolymorpha, showing 96.8% sequence similarity to actinopolymorpha singaporensis im 7744t and 97.0% similarity to actinopolymorpha rutila yim 45725t. chemotaxonomic data (peptidoglycan type i, ll-diaminopimelic acid; sugar pattern c, glucose, ... | 2009 | 19605725 |
| actinopolymorpha cephalotaxi sp. nov., a novel actinomycete isolated from rhizosphere soil of the plant cephalotaxus fortunei. | an actinomycete, strain i06-2230(t), was isolated from rhizosphere soil of the plant cephalotaxus fortunei, collected from yunnan province, south china. phylogenetic analysis based on 16s rrna gene sequences indicated that the isolate belongs to the genus actinopolymorpha. cells grew on agar surfaces, with no penetration even after prolonged cultivation. aerial hyphae were absent. cells were irregularly shaped and remained attached as chains or aggregates. chemotaxonomic data, which showed ll-di ... | 2010 | 19648316 |
| thermasporomyces composti gen. nov., sp. nov., a thermophilic actinomycete isolated from compost. | a thermophilic, gram-positive bacterium that formed a branched vegetative mycelium was isolated from compost. the strain, designated i3(t), grew at temperatures between 35 and 62 °c, with optimum growth at 50-55 °c. no growth was observed below 29 °c or above 65 °c. the ph range for growth was 5.7-10.0, the ph for optimum growth was 7.0 and no growth was observed below ph 5.6 or above ph 10.8. the dna g+c content of strain i3(t) was 69.2 mol%. the major fatty acids found were c(15 : 0) iso (14.2 ... | 2011 | 20154327 |
| discovery and total synthesis of a new estrogen receptor heterodimerizing actinopolymorphol a from actinopolymorpha rutilus. | estrogen receptor eralpha and erbeta heterodimerization has been implicated in cancer chemoprevention. the discovery, structural elucidation, and total synthesis of a new natural product, actinopolymorphol a (1), from actinopolymorpha rutilus (yim45725) that preferentially induces eralpha/beta heterodimerization is reported. total synthesis of 1 has allowed us to determine its absolute stereochemistry and that of a previously known deacetylated congener, and 1 represents the first member of a ne ... | 2010 | 20593804 |
| flindersiella endophytica gen. nov., sp. nov., an endophytic actinobacterium isolated from the root of grey box, an endemic eucalyptus tree. | a novel endophytic actinobacterium, designated as strain eum 378(t), was isolated from the surface-sterilized root tissue of eucalyptus microcarpa, a eucalyptus tree known as grey box. phylogenetic evaluation based on 16s rrna gene sequence analysis, including alignment with taxon-specific 16s rrna gene signature nucleotides, placed this isolate as a member of the family nocardioidaceae. strain eum 378(t) showed more than 5.5% 16s rrna gene sequence divergence with other members of this family a ... | 2010 | 20889769 |
| actinopolymorpha pittospori sp. nov., an endophytic actinobacterium isolated from surface-sterilized leaves of an australian native apricot tree. | a new strain of the genus actinopolymorpha, pip 143(t) was isolated from the leaves of an australian native apricot tree (pittosporum phylliraeoides). this strain is gram stain-positive, aerobic actinobacterium, with well-developed substrate mycelia which fragment into small rods. phylogenetic evaluation based on 16s rrna gene sequence analysis placed this isolate as a member of the family nocardioidaceae, and most closely to actinopolymorpha cephalotaxi strain i06-2230(t) (98.7%) and actinopoly ... | 2010 | 21148677 |
