Abstract:
A rod-shaped, Gram-positive bacterium, strain TNJL143-2 T , having N -acyl- d -amino acid amidohydrolase ( d -aminoacylase) activity, was isolated from a soil sample from Natori, Japan. It was a non-spore-forming, strictly aerobic bacterium without motility, showing a temperature optimum for growth of 30 °C and a pH optimum for growth of 5–7. The 16S rRNA gene sequence of the strain showed the highest similarities to members of the genus Microbacterium , in particular, Microbacterium aerolatum , Microbacterium foliorum and Microbacterium phyllosphaerae . The chemotaxonomic characteristics, including the compositions of cellular menaquinones, cellular fatty acids and cell-wall amino acids, were consistent with those described for the genus Microbacterium . The G+C content of the genomic DNA was determined as 69·1 mol%. DNA–DNA hybridization studies using type strains of M. aerolatum , M. foliorum and M. phyllosphaerae showed only low levels of relatedness (11–12 %). On the basis of these phenotypic and genotypic results, a novel species, Microbacterium natoriense sp. nov., is proposed, with TNJL143-2 T (=JCM 12611 T =ATCC BAA-1032 T ) as the type strain.
