Abstract

The taxonomic position of actinomycete strain SCNU5$\^$T/, isolated from extensive foam in the aeration basin of an activated sludge process, was clarified by phenotypic, chemotaxonomic and phylogenetic analyses. The strain possesses wall chemotype IV, MK-9(H$\^$0/), as the major menaquinone, and contains saturated, monounsaturated and 10-methyl branched fatty acids. The G+C content of its DNA is 68.1 mol%. Phenotypic data and DNA relatedness to known species indicate that the strain SCNU5$\^$T/ represents a new species within the genus Tsukamurella, for which we propose the name Tsukamurella sunchonensis SP. NOV. The type Strain Of T. sunchonensis is SCNU5$\^$T/ (=KCTC 9827$\^$T/).
