An oligonucleotide probe derived from kDNA minirepeats is specific for Leishmania (Viannia).
Sequence analysis of Leishmania (Viannia) kDNA minicircles and analysis of multiple sequence alignments of the conserved region (minirepeats) of five distinct minicircles from L. (V.) braziliensis species with corresponding sequences derived from other dermotropic leishmanias indicated the presence of a sub-genus specific sequence. An oligonucleotide bearing this sequence was designed and used ...
متن کاملLeishmania infantum species-specific kDNA probes: isolation and evaluation.
The study refers to the isolation of specific DNA probes to the parasite species Leishmania (L) infantum according to different strategies using recombinant minicircles isolated from L. infantum kinetoplast DNAs. A first probe was identified following a classical procedure. One mini-circle selected for strong reactivity to L. infantum total DNA was used to identify specific subfragments to this...

متن کاملLeishmania (Viannia) lainsoni (Kinetoplastida: Trypanosomatidae), a divergent Leishmania of the Viannia subgenus--a mini review.
Leishmania (Viannia) lainsoni is the Leishmania species that presents the most distinct biological (morphology, growth in axenic culture medium), biochemical (enzymatic electrophoresis profile), and molecular biology characteristics, when compared to other species of the Viannia subgenus. Development of promastigote forms of this parasite attached to the wall of the pyloric and hind gut regions...
متن کاملMucosal Leishmaniasis Caused by Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis and Leishmania (Viannia) guyanensis in the Brazilian Amazon
BACKGROUND Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis is a parasite recognized as the most important etiologic agent of mucosal leishmaniasis (ML) in the New World. In Amazonia, seven different species of Leishmania, etiologic agents of human Cutaneous Leishmaniasis, have been described. Isolated cases of ML have been described for several different species of Leishmania: L. (V.) panamensis, L. (V.) guy...
