MASTER OT J015031.44+161329.3 discovery - PSN in 10.6" of SDSS galaxy

MASTER-IAC auto-detection system ( Lipunov et al., "MASTER Global Robotic Net", Advances in Astronomy, 2010, 30L ) discovered OT source at (RA, Dec) = 01h 50m 31.44s +16d 13m 29.3s on 2018-08-10.22429 UT.
The OT unfiltered magnitude is 17.5m (limit 19.0m).
The OT is seen in 3 images. There is no minor planet at this place.
We have reference image without OT on 2015-09-21.135 UT with 20.5 unfiltered magnitude limit.
There is SDSS spiral galaxy in 10.6" http://skyserver.sdss.org/dr9/en/tools/quicklook/quickobj.asp?id=1237678601316794576
Spectral observations are required.
