Deep Lessons From the Uncultured
نویسنده
چکیده
In the current issue of The Journal of Infectious Diseases, Hage et al [1] report on the use of modern DNA sequencing methods in a study of the genetic diversity of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV). Information about HCMV population dynamics provided by this and other studies of HCMV genetic diversity reveal a richer and more subtle biology of the virus than previously documented and suggest that more forms of population diversity remain to be identified. The results provide important guidance to researchers and point to future clinical applications during acute and long-term care of patients suffering from or at risk of HCMV infection.

Effects of Uncultured Adipose Derived Stromal Vascular Fraction on Tendon Healing in Rabbits: A Histological and Immunohistochemical Study
Objective- To evaluate the potential effects of uncultured adipose derived stromal vascular fraction on tendon healing. Design- Prospective descriptive study. Animals- Twenty five adult male New Zealand white rabbits, weighing 2.5-3.0 kg were used. Five rabbits were used as donors of adipose tissue and the rest were divided into control and treatment groups. Procedures- The injury model was ...
متن کاملDiversity of prokaryotes and methanogenesis in deep subsurface sediments from the Nankai Trough, Ocean Drilling Program Leg 190.
Diversity of Bacteria and Archaea was studied in deep marine sediments by PCR amplification and sequence analysis of 16S rRNA and methyl co-enzyme M reductase (mcrA) genes. Samples analysed were from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 190 deep subsurface sediments at three sites spanning the Nankai Trough in the Pacific Ocean off Shikoku Island, Japan. DNA was amplified, from three depths at site...
متن کاملThermophilic lifestyle for an uncultured archaeon from hydrothermal vents: evidence from environmental genomics.
We present a comparative analysis of two genome fragments isolated from a diverse and widely distributed group of uncultured euryarchaea from deep-sea hydrothermal vents. The optimal activity and thermostability of a DNA polymerase predicted in one fragment were close to that of the thermophilic archaeon Thermoplasma acidophilum, providing evidence for a thermophilic way of life of this group o...
متن کاملDevelopment of an Alu-PCR Amplified YAC Probe Suitable for Enumeration of Chromosome 13 on Uncultured Lymphocytes and Amniocytes by Fluorescence in situ Hybridization
The main objective of the present study was to develop an efficient and reliable probe to be routinely used for detection of chromosome 13 copy numbers by interphase FISH. To achieve this, a Yeast Artificial Chromosome (YAC) containing sequences specific for human 13q12 (744D11), was cultured and the whole yeast genomic DNA was extracted. The human insert within the isolated DNA was amplified b...
متن کاملDevelopment of a probe consist of three cosmids to enumerate the chromosome 13 on uncultured lymphocytes or amniocytes using interphase FISH
Abstract Background: To produce a reliable probe suitable for aneuploidy detection of chromosome 13 on uncultured lymphocytes and amniocytes by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), we used a contig of three overlapping cosmids mapped to 13q12.3. Methods: The cosmid DNA carrying the expected sequences of human chromosome 13 was isolated from host cells and labelled with biotin-11-dUTP. Th...
