"Description and genomic insights into a multidrug resistant novel bacterium Savagea serpentis sp. nov., isolated from the scats of a vine snake (Ahaetulla nasuta)"^^ . "Two Gram-stain positive, endospore forming, non-motile, rod shaped bacterial strains SN6(T) and SN6b were isolated from scats of a mildly venomous vine snake (Ahaetulla nasuta). Strains were phenotypically resistant to multiple antibiotics of four different classes i.e. aminoglycosides, beta-lactams, fluoroquinolones and sulphonamides. Cells of both the strains were catalase positive and oxidase negative. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis of these two strains showed closest similarity (99.2% and 99.3%) with Savagea faecisuis Con12(T), the only species of the genus Savagea and <= 94.9% with the species of other closest genera of the family Planococcaceae. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (99%), DNA-DNA relatedness (95%) and similar phenotypic characteristics between the strains SN6(T) and SN6b revealed their phylogenetic affiliation to the same species. Hence, strain SN6b is an additional strain of the type strain SN6(T). DNA-DNA relatedness of strain SN6(T) with S. faecisuis Con12(T) was 32.8%. Predominant fatty acids were iso-C-15:0 (32.0%), iso-C-16:1 omega 11c (19.2%) and iso-C-17:1 omega 10c (12.1%). MK-6 (100%) was the only respiratory quinone of strain SN6(T). Diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol and phosphatidylethanolamine were the major polar lipids. Cell wall peptidoglycan was A4 alpha; L-Lys-Gly-D-Glu type. The DNA G + C content (mol%) of SN6(T) was 40.8. Whole genome sequence of SN6(T) consisted of 26,37,389 base pairs in length with 2667 annotated genes, out of which 1021 corresponds to hypothetical proteins and 1646 with functional assignments including antibiotic resistance, multidrug resistance efflux pumps, invasion and virulence factors. Comparative polyphasic study of the strains SN6(T), SN6b and S. faecisuis Con12(T) elucidated the differentiating characteristics which led to describing strain SN6(T) and SN6b as a novel species of the genus Savagea for which the name Savagea serpentis sp. nov is proposed. The type strain of Savagea serpentis is SN6(T) (= KCTC 33546(T) = CCUG 6786(T))."^^ . "2021-03-14" . . "Springer Science"^^ . . . "Antonie van Leeuwenhoek"^^ . . .
