Actinomycetota-derived antibiotics that are important in medicine include aminoglycosides, anthracyclines, chloramphenicol, macrolide, tetracyclines, etc. [citation needed] Actinomycetota have high guanine and cytosine content in their DNA. [21] The G+C content of Actinomycetota can be as high as 70%, though some may have a low G+C content. [22]
The Actinomycetales is an order of Actinomycetota. A member of the order is often called an actinomycete. Actinomycetales are generally gram-positive and anaerobic and have mycelia in a filamentous and branching growth pattern. Some actinomycetes can form rod- or coccoid-shaped forms, while others can form spores on aerial hyphae.
Actinomyces is a genus of the Actinomycetia class of bacteria.They all are Gram-positive and facultatively anaerobic, growing best under anaerobic conditions. [2] Actinomyces species may form endospores, and while individual bacteria are rod-shaped, Actinomyces colonies form fungus-like branched networks of hyphae. [3]

Streptomyces is the largest genus of Actinomycetota, and the type genus of the family Streptomycetaceae. [3] Over 700 species of Streptomyces bacteria have been described. [4] [5] [6] As with the other Actinomycetota, streptomycetes are gram-positive, and have very large genomes with high GC content.
Rubrobacteria is a class of Actinomycetota. [1] [2] The currently accepted taxonomy is based on the List of Prokaryotic names with Standing in Nomenclature (LPSN) [2] and National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI). [3]
This bacterium is a member of the genus Actinomyces and its taxonomic classification is as follows: Bacteria, Actinomycetota, Actinomycetes, Actinomycetales, Actinomycetaceae, Actinomyces, Actinomyces massiliensis. [4] To date, there are over 30 species of Actinomyces documented in the literature. [5]
