Abstract

A new, slow-growing, scotochromogenic mycobacterium was isolated from a lymph node of an immunocompromised child and subsequently from tap water and from a respiratory specimen of a patient with chronic fibrosis. Alcohol-acid-fastness, lipid patterns and the G + C content clearly support the placement of this organism in the genus Mycobacterium. The isolates grew very slowly at temperatures ranging from 25 to 32 degrees C and showed activities of nitrate reductase, catalase, urease, arylsulfatase and Tween 80 hydrolysis. The organism was susceptible to all antimycobacterial drugs tested. The 16S rDNA sequence was unique and phylogenetic analysis placed the organism close to fast-growing species such as Mycobacterium farcinogenes, Mycobacterium komossense and Mycobacterium aichiense. These data support the conclusion that the isolates represent a new mycobacterial species, for which the name Mycobacterium tusciae sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is strain FI-25796T; a culture of this strain has been deposited in the DSMZ as strain DSM 44338T.

tusciae分枝杆菌。

从一名免疫功能低下儿童的淋巴结、随后从自来水和一名慢性纤维化患者的呼吸道标本中分离出一种新的、生长缓慢的褐变分枝杆菌。醇酸牢度、脂质模式和G + C含量清楚地支持该生物在分枝杆菌属中的位置。菌株在25 ~ 32℃的温度下生长缓慢，具有硝酸还原酶、过氧化氢酶、脲酶、芳基硫酸酯酶和吐温80水解活性。这种生物对所有抗真菌药物都敏感。该菌16S rDNA序列独特，系统发育分析表明该菌与产癌分枝杆菌(Mycobacterium farcinogenes)、共生分枝杆菌(Mycobacterium komossense)和爱奇分枝杆菌(Mycobacterium aichiense)等快速生长的物种接近。这些数据支持了分离物代表一个新的分枝杆菌种的结论，并建议将其命名为分枝杆菌tusciae sp. 11。型应变为应变FI-25796T;该菌株的培养物已在DSMZ中沉积为菌株DSM 44338T。
