MicroRNA-derived Fragment Length Polymorphism Assay
MicroRNA (miRNA) studies are experiencing a transition from basic research applications to clinical applications. However, the lack of reliable and sensitive miRNA detection methods has become a bottleneck in the process. Here, we report an absolute quantification method based on the competitive PCR amplification of specific miRNAs and synthetic RNA spike-ins in a single reaction. RNA spike-ins...
متن کاملRestriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP)
Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) is a technique in which organisms may be differentiated by analysis of patterns derived from cleavage of their DNA. If two organisms differ in the distance between sites of cleavage of a particular restriction endonuclease, the length of the fragments produced will differ when the DNA is digested with a restriction enzyme. The similarity of the pa...
متن کاملEpidemiology of human sporotrichosis investigated by amplified fragment length polymorphism.
Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) was used to analyze the genetic diversity of Peruvian strains of Sporothrix schenckii and to compare them to a panel of non-Peruvian strains. AFLP analysis suggests that the Peruvian strains can be divided into two homogeneous clusters with no reference to geographical origin or the clinical form of sporotrichosis. The strains from abroad present he...
متن کاملUse of Amplification Fragment Length Polymorphism to Genotype Pseudomonas stutzeri Strains Following Exposure to Ultraviolet Light A.
Changes in ultraviolet light radiation can act as a selective force on the genetic and physiological traits of a microbial community. Two strains of the common soil bacterium Pseudomonas stutzeri, isolated from aquifer cores and from human spinal fluid were exposed to ultraviolet light. Amplification length polymorphism analysis (AFLP) was used to genotype this bacterial species and evaluate th...
متن کاملApplications of restriction fragment length polymorphism.
The availability of a variety of restriction endonuclease enzymes that cleave deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) at specific sites has made it possible to identify the presence of polymorphic regions in the isolated fragments. Such restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) results owing to a variation in the number of tandem repeats (VNTR) of a short DNA segment. These VNTR sequences can uniquel...
