Title Verrucosispora sediminis sp. nov., a cyclodipeptide-producing actinomycete from deep-sea sediment.
Journal Int J Syst Evol Microbiol
Abstract An actinomycete, designated MS426T, the culture broth of which showed potent antimicrobial activity, was isolated from a deep-sea sediment sample of the South China Sea. An almost-complete sequence of the 16S rRNA gene of strain MS426T was determined and aligned with those of representatives of the family Micromonosporaceae available in public databases. Phylogenetic trees were inferred by using three algorithms. Strain MS426T formed a branch adjacent to Verrucosispora lutea YIM 013T in a distinct cluster occupied only by strains of the genus Verrucosispora. Strain MS426T was distinguishable from the type strains of the two described Verrucosispora species by using a combination of chemical and morphological markers and by DNA-DNA relatedness. On the basis of these genotypic and phenotypic differences, the novel antimicrobial strain with pharmaceutical potential represents a novel species, for which the name Verrucosispora sediminis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is MS426T (=CGMCC 4.3550T =JCM 15670T).
