Abstract |
In this study, Strain [corrected] SK-1(T), a novel gram-positive, pleomorphic, rod-shaped, non-spore forming, non-motile organism, designated SK-1T , was isolated from human gingival sulcus and found to produce acetic acid, propionic acid, lactic acid, and succinic acid as end products of glucose fermentation. Strain SK-1T is most closely related to Pseudopropionibacterium (Propionibacterium) propionicum with sequence homologies of the 16S rRNA and RNA polymerase β subunit (rpoB) genes of 96.6% and 93.1%, respectively. The genomic DNA G + C content of the isolate was 61.8 mol%. On the basis of the sequence data of the 16S rRNA and housekeeping (rpoB) genes, a novel taxon is here proposed, Pseudopropionibacterium rubrum sp. nov. (type strain SK-1T = JCM 31317T = DSM 100122T ). The 16S rRNA and rpoB gene sequences of strain SK-1T have been deposited in the DDBJ under the accession numbers LC002971 and LC102236, respectively. |
