Identification of Streptococcus sanguinis with a PCR-generated species-specific DNA probe.
The objective of the present study was to design a PCR-generated DNA probe and determine the specificity of the probe for the identification of clinical isolates of Streptococcus sanguinis. To do this, we examined over 200 arbitrarily primed PCR (AP-PCR) amplicon patterns obtained with DNA from clinical isolates of S. sanguinis. A 1.6-kb DNA amplicon that was common to all AP-PCR profiles was e...
متن کاملSpecies Specific DNA Profiling Mycobacterial Genomes Using Polymerase Chain Reaction with Single Universal Primer (UP-PCR)
Three tuberculous, twenty-one non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) reference strains and seventy two isolates classified by biochemical tests were shown to produce specific sets of DNA fragments in a polymerase chain reaction with single universal primer (UP-PCR). A rather wide limit of tolerance for variations in procedure of PCR mixture preparation and thermocycling parameters was found. There...
متن کاملRapid identification of Candida species with species-specific DNA probes.
Rapid identification of Candida species has become more important because of an increase in infections caused by species other than Candida albicans, including species innately resistant to azole antifungal drugs. We previously developed a PCR assay with an enzyme immunoassay (EIA) format to detect amplicons from the five most common Candida species by using universal fungal primers and species...
متن کاملGenome-wide essential gene identification in Streptococcus sanguinis
A clear perception of gene essentiality in bacterial pathogens is pivotal for identifying drug targets to combat emergence of new pathogens and antibiotic-resistant bacteria, for synthetic biology, and for understanding the origins of life. We have constructed a comprehensive set of deletion mutants and systematically identified a clearly defined set of essential genes for Streptococcus sanguin...
متن کاملA specific DNA probe for the identification of Campylobacter jejuni.
A 6.1 kb DNA probe for the human enteric pathogen Campylobacter jejuni has been isolated from a genomic library constructed in the plasmid vector pBR322 in Escherichia coli. The DNA sequence used as a probe was identified from recombinant plasmids following immunological screening of transformants using polyclonal antisera to whole cells and to membrane antigens of C. jejuni. Restriction endonu...
