Streptomyces marincola sp. nov., a Novel Marine Actinomycete, and Its Biosynthetic Potential of Bioactive Natural Products.

ABSTRACT: Marine actinomycetes are an important source of antibiotics, but many of them are yet to be explored in terms of taxonomy, ecology, and functional activity. In this study, two marine actinobacterial strains, designated SCSIO 64649^T and SCSIO 03032, were isolated, and the potential for bioactive natural product discovery was evaluated based on genome mining, compound detection, and antimicrobial activity. Phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequences showed that strain SCSIO 64649^T formed a single clade with SCSIO 03032 (similarity 99.5%) and sister clades with the species Streptomyces specialis DSM 41924^T (97.1%) and Streptomyces manganisoli MK44^T (96.8%). The whole genome size of strain SCSIO 64649^T was 6.63 Mbp w
