Estimation of chromosome number and size by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) in medically important Candida species.
The chromosomal DNAs of eight medically important Candida species, C. albicans, C. stellatoidea, C. tropicalis, C. parapsilosis, C. krusei, C. guilliermondii, C. kefyr and C. glabrata, were analysed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis under various conditions. The corresponding bands in the gels were assigned by three kinds of DNA probe which hybridized to DNA of all the species: rDNA, TUB2 and...
متن کاملFingerprinting Viral Assemblages by Pulsed Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE)
Viruses are the most abundant microorganisms in marine and freshwater environments and perhaps the most genetically diverse (Fuhrman and Suttle, 1993). Counting viruses in aquatic samples is now a routine matter, but assessing the diversity and dynamics within complex assemblages is still a challenge. DNA-based fingerprinting approaches, which rely on amplification of rRNA gene fragments by PCR...
متن کاملPulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) analysis of Listeria monocytogenes.
PFGE is a valuable tool for assessing Listeria monocytogenes strain interrelatedness. It is based on the study of total bacterial DNA restriction patterns. Cells are embedded in agarose plugs before being lysed. The released DNA is then digested into large fragments by restriction enzymes. As DNA fragments are too large to be separated by traditional electrophoresis in an agarose gel, changes i...
متن کاملDetermination of Wolbachia genome size by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
Genome sizes of six different Wolbachia strains from insect and nematode hosts have been determined by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of purified DNA both before and after digestion with rare-cutting restriction endonucleases. Enzymes SmaI, ApaI, AscI, and FseI cleaved the studied Wolbachia strains at a small number of sites and were used for the determination of the genome sizes of wMelPop, ...
متن کاملDetermination of the Genetic Diversity of Different Bioluminescent Bacteria by Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophoresis (PFGE)
BACKGROUND There are 4 different genera (i.e. Vibrio, Aliivibrio, Photobacterium, and Shewanella) in the new classification of bioluminescent bacteria. The mechanism of bioluminescence has yet to be fully elucidated. Therefore, the determination of physiological and genetic characteristics of bioluminescent bacteria isolated from different sources is very important. Pulsed-Field Gel Electrophor...
