| Abstract |
A novel, anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive coccoid strain, CBA3646T, was isolated from the faeces of a thoroughbred racehorse. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequencing yielded results indicative of CBA3646T representing a member of the genus Peptoniphilus, with the species most closely related to it being Peptoniphilus asaccharolyticus DSM 20463T, with a similarity of 94.79 %. DNA-DNA relatedness and average nucleotide identity values between CBA3646T and P. asaccharolyticus DSM 20463T were 21.4 and 67.6 %, respectively. CBA3646T has a circular chromosomal genome of 1 709 189 bp (45.5 mol% DNA G+C content), containing 1652 genes in total, 1584 predicted protein-coding genes, 3 complete rRNA loci and 47 tRNA genes. The cells were non-motile diplococci, catalase-positive and oxidase-negative. Growth of CBA3646T was observed at 20-40 °C (optimal temperature, 35 °C) and in the presence of 0-4 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum concentration, 1 %). The major fatty acids (>10 %) of CBA3646T were C16 : 0, C18 : 1ω9c and C18 : 1ω9c dimethyl acetal, with its major polar lipids being diphosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylglycerol. The elucidated phylogenetic, physiological, chemotaxonomic and molecular properties are indicative of strain CBA3646T representing a novel species of the genus Peptoniphilus, or which the name Peptoniphilus equinus sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CBA3646T (= KACC 22890T = JCM 35845T).
