Abstract
Summary The generic position of an aerobic, Gram-positive organism known as actinomycete MG417-CF17 was determined following isolation of the PCR amplified 16S rRNA genes and alignment of the resultant sequence with corresponding sequences from representatives of the family Pseudonocardiaceae . The assignment of the organism to the genus Amycolatopsis was strongly supported by chemotaxonomic and morphological data. The strain was distinguished from representatives of validly described Amycolatopsis species by a number of phenotypic properties. It is proposed that strain MG417-CF17 be classified in the genus Amycolatopsis as Amycolatopsis japonicum sp. nov.
