Abstract
Chemotaxonomic and genomic 16S ribosomal DNA sequence analyses of two isolates obtained from two different clinical materials clearly deline ated a new species of the genus Tsukamurella, This new species can be identified by its 16S ribosomal DNA similarity values, as well as its physiological characteristics. The name Tsukamurella inchonensis sp. n ov. is proposed for these isolates, which are represented by strain IM MIB D-771(T) (= DSM 44067(T)) (T = type strain), This strain exhibits only 45% DNA relatedness to Tsukamurella paurometabola.
