Two novel strains of Gram-stain-negative, rod-shaped, obligately anaerobic, non-spore-forming, non-motile bacteria were isolated from the faeces of healthy human subjects. The strains, designated as 585-1(T) and 668, were characterized by mesophilic fermentative metabolism, production of D-lactic acid, succinic acid and acetic acid as end products of D-glucose fermentation, prevalence of C-18 : 1 omega 9, C-18 : 1 omega 9 aldehyde, C-16 : 0 and C-16 : 1 omega 7c fatty acids, presence of glycine, glutamic acid, lysine, alanine and aspartic acid in the petidoglycan peptide moiety and lack of respiratory quinones. Whole genome sequencing revealed the DNA G+C content was 56.4-56.6 mol%. The complete 16S rRNA gene sequences of the two strains shared 91.7/91.6% similarity with Anaerofilum pentosovorans Fae(T), 91.3/91.2% with Gemmiger formicilis ATCC 27749(T) and 88.9/88.8% with Faecalibacterium prausnitzii ATCC 27768(T). On the basis of chemotaxonomic and genomic properties it was concluded that the strains represent a novel species in a new genus within the family Ruminococcaceae, for which the name Ruthenibacterium lactatiformans gen. nov., sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain of Ruthenibacterium lactatiformans is 585-1(T) (=DSM 100348(T) =VKM B-2901(T)).
