serves to both provide a molecular marker for nearly all of the Pseudonocardiaceae and suggests ''N. multipartite'' is closely related to this group. Some evidence also suggests the orders Pseudonocardiales and Corynebacteriales are closely related. Several conserved signature indels have been identified which are found in both Pseudonocardiales and Corynebacteriales, including a three-amino-acid insertion in a conserved region of UDP-galactopyranose mutase. This insertion is also present in ''N. multipartite'' and ''Geodermatophilus obscurus'', another member of Frankiales. Additionally, five conserved signature proteins have been identified which are found only in the orders Pseudonocardiales and Corynebacterialess. Homologs of the proteins are generally found in ''N. multipartite'' and ''G. obscurus'', providing additional evidence of these two species being closely related to the orders Pseudonocardiales and Corynebacteriales.
