An aerobic, Gram-stain-negative, non-motile, non-spore-forming, short rod-shaped bacterial strain, designated NCCP 15609 T, was isolated from the blood sample of a patient in the Republic of Korea. The strain was identified as Brevundimonas diminuta using MALDI-TOF. A phylogenetic tree constructed using 16S rRNA gene sequences revealed that the isolate was of the genus Brevundimonas with 99.8% similarity to B. naejangsanensis. The strain NCCP 15609T genome consisted of one contig with 3,063,090 bp, and had a G+C content of 67.4%. The genome contained 2,949 protein-coding sequences, 52 tRNAs, and 6 rRNAs. The DNA-DNA hybridisation between NCCP 15609T and B. naejangsanensis yielded 92.5% and 49.5% ± 2.6%, respectively, using the average nucleotide identity (ANI) and digital DNA-DNA hybridisation (dDDH). The predominant fatty acids of strain NCCP 15609T were summed feature 8 (C18:1 ω7c/C18:1 ω6c) and C16:0. The isolate contained polar lipids and quinone, corresponding to phosphatidylglycerol, 1,2-di-O-acyl-3-O-[D-glycopyranosyl (1 → 4)-α-D-glucopyranuronosyl] glycerol, and ubiquinone-10, respectively. Based on its phylogenetic, physiological, and chemotaxonomic characteristics, we suggest that NCCP 15609T represents a novel pathogen resource of the genus Brevundimonas and propose to name it Brevundimonas sanguinis sp. nov. The type strain is NCCP 15609T (= DSM 116005T).
