Recently, we obtained a rickettsial isolate ( sp. UFMG-EV) from the haemolymph of engorged tick females. On the basis of maximum-likelihood phylogenetic analysis using 16S rRNA gene, , , and sequences we showed that sp. UFMG-EV belongs to the , family , genus . sp. UFMG-EV is a sister taxon of with 16S rRNA gene, , , and sequence similarities of 98.3 %, 97.2 %, 94.7 %, 94.3 % and 49.1 %, respectively. sp. UFMG-EV has been maintained in the laboratory by continuous passage in the IDE8 tick cell line where the ultrastructure was characterized using electron microscopy and was found to resemble that of , and , but not and . We propose the name sp. nov. for this bacterium to acknowledge the place from where it was initially isolated, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The type strain is strain sp. UFMG-EV ( = DSM 100393 = TCB-TBB-0018).
最近,我们从饱血雌蜱的血淋巴中获得了一种立克次氏体分离株(UFMG-EV 种)。基于使用 16S rRNA 基因、 、 和 序列的最大似然系统发育分析,我们表明 UFMG-EV 种属于 科、 属。UFMG-EV 种是 的姐妹分类单元,其 16S rRNA 基因、 、 和 序列相似性分别为 98.3%、97.2%、94.7%、94.3% 和 49.1%。UFMG-EV 种已通过在 IDE8 蜱细胞系中连续传代在实验室中保存,在那里使用电子显微镜对其超微结构进行了表征,发现其类似于 、 和 的超微结构,但不同于 和 的。我们提议将这种细菌命名为 新种,以认可其最初分离的地点,即巴西米纳斯吉拉斯州。模式菌株是 UFMG-EV 种菌株(= DSM 100393 = TCB-TBB-0018)。
