Restriction fragment length polymorphisms in rRNA operons for subtyping Shigella sonnei.
Shigella sonnei is the most frequent cause of shigellosis in the United States. Epidemiologic studies of this organism have been hampered by the lack of adequate typing procedures. Ribosomal DNA analysis (ribotyping), a method which analyzes restriction fragment length polymorphisms in the chromosomal genes that encode rRNA, has recently been shown to be useful for microbial species identificat...
متن کاملMan Using Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms
We describe a new basis for the construction of a genetic linkage map of the human genome. The basic principle of the mapping scheme is to develop, by recombinant DNA techniques, random single-copy DNA probes capable of detecting DNA sequence polymorphisms, when hybridized to restriction digests of an individual's DNA. Each of these probes will define a locus. Loci can be expanded or contracted...
متن کاملNeisseria gonorrhoeae by restriction fragment length polymorphisms
Objective-To characterise Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates by restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) in ribosomal RNA genes. Design-Generation of RFLP patterns by HincII restriction of rRNA genes followed by hybridisation with a nonradioactive labelled broad spectrum 16 + 23S rRNA gene probe. This typing method was developed and compared with MAb based serotyping. Specimens-Forty three...
متن کاملUsefulness of inter-IS1 spacer polymorphisms for subtyping of Shigella sonnei isolates.
Shigella sonnei contains numerous IS1 elements. The existence of polymorphisms in the length of the inter-IS1 spacer is a basis for the development of a PCR-based method for the subtyping of S. sonnei strains. The usefulness of inter-IS1 spacer typing (IST) was evaluated and compared with that of pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) by characterization of S. sonnei isolates from epidemiologi...
متن کاملMolecular typing of Pseudomonas pseudomallei: restriction fragment length polymorphisms of rRNA genes.
The aim of this study was to develop a typing scheme for Pseudomonas pseudomallei by comparison of patterns of restriction fragment length polymorphisms in rRNA genes (ribotyping). BamHI restriction digests of 100 isolates from various animal (34), human (58), and environmental (6) sources, including six reference strains, were hybridized to Escherichia coli 16S and 23S rRNAs. A chemiluminescen...
