Abstract

Previous experiments have suggested that the rifamycin-producing strain DSM 46095 might not belong to Amycolatopsis mediterranei. Analysis of its 16S rRNA gene sequence and construction of a phylogenetic tree showed most similarity to Amycolatopsis kentuckyensis NRRL B-24129T, Amycolatopsis lexingtonensis NRRL B-24129T and Amycolatopsis pretoriensis NRRL B-24133T, but the strain was probably not a member of any of these species. Results from DNA–DNA hybridization experiments and comparison of DNA profiling patterns using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis also supported the assignment of strain DSM 46095 to a novel species. Analyses of phospholipids, fatty acid methyl esters and physiological characteristics also showed that the differences between different isolates of A. mediterranei and A. mediterranei DSM 46095 were as large as those between Amycolatopsis species. Strain DSM 46095 represents a novel species of the genus Amycolatopsis for which the name Amycolatopsis rifamycinica sp. nov. is proposed, with the type strain NT 19T (=DSM 46095T=ATCC 27643T).
