Comparative sequence analyses of the 16S rRNA genes of Lactobacillus minutus, Lactobacillus rimae and Streptococcus parvulus: proposal for the creation of a new genus Atopobium.

Department of Microbiology, AFRC Institute of Food Research, Reading Laboratory, UK.

16S rRNA gene sequencing was performed on the species Lactobacillus minutus, Lactobacillus rimae and Streptococcus parvulus in order to clarify their taxonomic position. Based on comparative sequence analyses these organisms represent a hitherto unknown line of descent within the lactic acid group of bacteria for which a new genus, Atopobium gen. nov., is proposed.
