Abstract:
A novel coccoid, halotolerant actinobacterium, designated strain YIM 70085 T , was isolated from a soil sample that was collected in Xinjiang Province, China, and characterized by using a polyphasic approach. Optimum growth temperature was 28 °C and growth occurred optimally in culture media that contained 10 % KCl. The peptidoglycan type was A4 α , l -lys–gly– l -Glu. Whole-cell sugars consisted of xylose, mannose and galactose. Phospholipids were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, one unknown phospholipid, one unknown glycolipid and traces of phosphatidylinositol. Menaquinones were MK-8 (83 %), MK-7 (12 %) and MK-9 (15 %). Predominant fatty acids were i-C 15 : 0 (44·29 %), ai-C 15 : 0 (35·60 %) and ai-C 17 : 0 (9·74 %). The DNA G+C content was 53·5 mol%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain YIM 70085 T occupies a branch that is distinct from, although very close to, the family Micrococcaceae in the suborder Micrococcineae . Based on its phenotypic characteristics, phylogenetic position (as determined by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis) and 16S rDNA signature nucleotide data, it is concluded that the isolate represents a novel member of the suborder Micrococcineae , for which the name Yania halotolerans gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is YIM 70085 T (=CCTCC AA001023 T =DSM 15476 T ).
