Development of a multilocus sequence typing method for analysis of Lactobacillus plantarum strains.
Lactobacillus plantarum is a species of considerable industrial and medical interest. To date, the lack of reliable molecular methods for definite identification at strain level has hindered studies of the population biology of this organism. Here, a multilocus sequence typing (MLST) system for this organism is described, which exploits the genetic variation present in six housekeeping loci to ...
متن کاملDevelopment of a multilocus sequence typing method for analysis of Listeria monocytogenes clones.
This study is a first step in the development of multilocus sequence typing (MLST) method for Listeria monocytogenes. Nine housekeeping genes were analyzed in a set of 62 strains isolated from different sources and geographic locations in Spain. These strains were previously characterized by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). Because of low diversity, two loci were discarded from the stud...
متن کاملMultilocus sequence typing for differentiation of strains of Candida tropicalis.
A system is described for typing isolates of the pathogenic fungus Candida tropicalis, based on sequence polymorphisms in fragments of six genes: ICL1, MDR1, SAPT2, SAPT4, XYR1, and ZWF1a. The system differentiated 87 diploid sequence types (DSTs) among a total of 106 isolates tested or 80 DSTs among 88 isolates from unique sources. Replicate isolates from the same source clustered together wit...
متن کاملDevelopment of Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) for Mycoplasma synoviae.
Mycoplasma synoviae (MS) is a poultry pathogen that has had an increasing incidence and economic impact over the past few years. Strain identification is necessary for outbreak investigation, infection source identification, and facilitating prevention and control as well as eradication efforts. Currently, a segment of the variable lipoprotein hemagglutinin A (vlhA) gene (420 bp) is the only ta...
متن کاملMultilocus Sequence Typing for Clonality Analysis of Antimicrobial-Resistant Stenotrophomonas maltophilia Strains
Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is an opportunistic nosocomial pathogen and is being isolated worldwide with increasing frequency. S. maltophilia isolates are often highly resistant to most of the currently used antimicrobial agents, including carbapenems, aminoglycosides, and fluoroquinolones. A variety of antimicrobial resistance mechanisms, including efflux pumps and integrons, have been report...
