Experimental versus in silico fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis: improved typing with an extended fragment range.
Whole-genome fingerprinting fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism (FAFLP) data were compared with in silico data for the sequenced strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (H37Rv and CDC1551). For this G+C-rich genome, many predicted fragments were not detected experimentally. For H37Rv, only 108 (66%) of the 163 predicted EcoRI-MseI fragments between 100 and 500 bp were visualized in...
متن کاملMolecular typing of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis.
The etiologic agent of Lyme borreliosis, Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, has been isolated from many biologic sources in North America and Eurasia, and isolates have been divided into three distinct genospecies (B. burgdorferi sensu stricto, Borrelia garinii, and Borrelia afzelii). In order to explore the possible association of genospecies with disease manifestation, 60 isolates of B. burgdor...
متن کاملGenetic Heterogeneity among Leishmania major Isolates in Iran Determined by Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) and Multilocus Microsatellite Typing (MLMT)
Background & Aims: In recent years, molecular methods for characterizing genetic heterogeneity have found a major place in modern approaches. In this study, two different molecular techniques including Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) and Multi Locus microsatellite typing (MLMT) were carried out in order to evaluate genetic heterogeneity among isolates of Leishmania major in Iran...
متن کاملDNA Extraction Strategies for Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism Analysis
A polymerase chain reaction-based DNA typing method, amplified fragment length polymorphism (AMP-FLP) analysis, has shown promise as a means of analyzing forensic biological evidence. A variety of DNA extraction methods were evaluated for their suitability for AMP-FLP analysis. Factors that were considered in the evaluation included DNA yield, ability of DNA to be amplified, the presence of DNA...
متن کاملFluorescent Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism Analysis of Norwegian Bacillus cereus
We examined 154 Norwegian B. cereus and B. thuringiensis soil isolates (collected from five different locations), 8 B. cereus and 2 B. thuringiensis reference strains, and 2 Bacillus anthracis strains by using fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP). We employed a novel fragment identification approach based on a hierarchical agglomerative clustering routine that identifies fr...
