N2 - A Gram-positive, rod-shaped bacterium, designated strain LBYT, was isolated from the blood of a Korean patient. The organism could not be identified based on conventional clinical microbiological methods. 16S rRNA gene sequencing and phylogenetic analysis revealed that it belonged to the genus Paenibacillus, but was distinct from recognized Paenibacillus species. Strain LBYT was related most closely to the type strains of Paenibacillus macerans and Paenibacillus popilliae, with 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities of 96.2 and 95.4 %, respectively. The major fatty acids of strain LBYT were anteiso-C15:0 (43.8%), C16:0 (10.4%), iso-C16:0 (10.3 %), iso-C15:'0 (9.2 %) and anteiso-C17:0 (8.3 %). On the basis of biochemical characteristics, fatty acid composition and comparative 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, strain LBYT is considered to represent a novel species of the genus Paenibacillus, for which the name Paenibacillus konsidensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is LBYT (=ABB-ID-KSY9T=KCTC 13165T=JCM 14798T).
