Mycolicibacillus koreensis

Mycolicibacillus koreensis (formerly Mycobacterium koreense ) is a slow-growing, non-chromogenic species of Mycolicibacillus originally isolated from the sputum of a human patient. It grows at temperatures from 25 to 37 °C and is susceptible to quinolones. The genome of M. koreensis contains a tRNA array that contains a long non-coding RNA called GOLDD.
