Abstract

An aerotolerant, psychrotolerant anaerobe, anNAG3, was isolated from an acidic forest floor solution (in situ pH of 4.5). Cells of anNAG3 stained Gram-positive, did not form spores, and were not motile. Cells were ovoid, approximately 1 µm long and 0.7 µm wide, mostly in pairs, and contained a multi-layered cell wall and intracytoplasmic membranes. Growth was observed at pH 3.5 to 7.5 and 0 to 35 °C. Glucose, galactose, fructose, mannitol, glucosamine, N-acetylglucosamine, cellobiose, and maltose supported growth. Lactate, ethanol, formate, and acetate were end products. H2 and CH4 were not detected, and only very minor amounts of CO2 were produced. The relative amount of a particular product was dependent on the substrate utilized, and product profiles indicated that (i) sugars were initially metabolized to pyruvate via glycolysis, and (ii) lactate dehydrogenase and pyruvate-formate lyase were responsible for the subsequent metabolism of pyruvate. O2 was not significantly utilized and was not toxic to growth. anNAG3 did not contain detectable membranous or cytoplasmic cytochromes. Nitrate, sulfate, or Fe (III) were not dissimilated. Thus, anNAG3 was characterized as an aerotolerant, nonacetogenic chemoorganotroph with a mixed-fermentative metabolism. The G + C content of the DNA was 37.6 mol%. The similarity of the 16S rRNA gene sequence of anNAG3 to that of its closest phylogenetic relatives (which were in the genera Lactococcus and Streptococcus) approximated 88 to 89%, indicating that anNAG3 constitutes the type species of a new genus. Based on the collective properties of anNAG3, it is proposed that anNAG3 be termed Lactovum miscens.
