“…Members of the order Corynebacteriales typically contain mycolic acids. Until recently, wall chemotype IV actinomycetes that contain mycolic acids were assigned to genera in the suborder Corynebacterineae (Stackebrandt et al 1997;Zhi et al 2009) which was recasted into the order Corynebacteriales in 2012 (Goodfellow and Jones 2012). In the revised taxonomy of the actinobacteria, the taxonomic ranks of subclasses and suborders are eliminated.…”

“…Members of the order Corynebacteriales are found in diverse environments, notably in the soil ecosystem, and some species are serious pathogens of humans and domestic animals (Goodfellow and Jones 2012). The order Corynebacteriales comprises the families Corynebacteriaceae, Dietziaceae, Gordoniaceae, Mycobacteriaceae, Nocardiaceae, Segniliparaceae, and Tsukamurellaceae and includes the recently described taxa Millisia, Skermania, Smaragdicoccus, Tomitella, and Williamsia (Goodfellow and Jones 2012).…”

“…In the revised taxonomy of the actinobacteria, the taxonomic ranks of subclasses and suborders are eliminated. The phylum Actinobacteria is now divided into six classes, and the class Actinobacteria now contains a total of 15 orders (Goodfellow and Jones 2012). Families and genera classified in the order Corynebacteriales can be distinguished from one another and from corresponding taxa in the phylum Actinobacteria by 16S rRNA similarity values and by taxonspecific 16S rRNA nucleotide sequences (Zhi et al 2009).…”

The genera classified in the families Gordoniaceae, Mycobacteriaceae, Nocardiaceae, and Tsukamurellaceae contain N-glycolated muramic acid and a phospholipid pattern which includes the taxonomically significant nitrogenous phospholipid phosphatidylethanolamine (phospholipid type II).…”

“…According to recent improvements in the taxonomy of actinomycetes, the family Corynebacteriaceae belongs to the phylum Actinobacteria, class Actinobacteria, and order Corynebacteriales Stackebrandt et al 1997;Goodfellow and Jones 2012). The order Corynebacteriales includes aerobic or facultatively anaerobic, Gram-stain-positive, catalase-positive actinomycetes.…”

Mycobacteria are opportunistic intracellular pathogens that have plagued humans and other animals throughout history and still are today. They manipulate and hijack phagocytic cells of immune systems, enabling them to occupy this peculiar infection niche. Mycobacteria exploit a plethora of mechanisms to resist antimicrobials (e. g., waxy cell walls, efflux pumps, target modification, biofilms, etc.) thereby evolving into superbugs, such as extensively drug‐resistant tuberculosis (XDR TB) bacilli and the emerging pathogenic Mycobacterium abscessus complex. This review summarizes the mechanisms of action of some of the surging antimycobacterial strategies. Exploiting the fact that mycobacteria are obligate aerobes and the differences between their oxidative phosphorylation pathways versus their human counterpart opens a promising avenue for drug discovery. The polymorphism of respiratory complexes across mycobacterial pathogens imposes challenges on the repositioning of antimycobacterial agents to battle the rise in nontuberculous mycobacterial infections. In silico strategies exploiting mycobacterial respiratory machinery data to design novel therapeutic agents are touched upon. The potential druggability of mycobacterial respiratory elements is reviewed. Future research addressing the health challenges associated with mycobacterial pathogens is discussed.

Actinomycetes growing on acidified starch-casein agar seeded with suspensions of litter and mineral soil from a spruce forest were provisionally assigned to the genus Nocardia based upon colonial properties. Representative isolates were found to grow optimally at pH 5.5, have chemotaxonomic and morphological features consistent with their assignment to the genus Nocardia and formed two closely related subclades in the Nocardia 16S rRNA gene tree. DNA:DNA relatedness assays showed that representatives of the subclades belong to a single genomic species. The isolates were distantly associated with their nearest phylogenetic neighbour, the type strain of Nocardia kruczakiae, and were distinguished readily from the latter based on phenotypic properties. On the basis of these data it is proposed that the isolates merit recognition as a new species, Nocardia aciditolerans sp. nov. The type strain is isolate CSCA68T (=KACC 17155T = NCIMB 14829T = DSM 45801T).Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s10482-013-9887-3) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
