Multilocus sequence typing of Clostridium difficile.
A robust high-throughput multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme for Clostridium difficile was developed and validated using a diverse collection of 50 reference isolates representing 45 different PCR ribotypes and 102 isolates from recent clinical samples. A total of 49 PCR ribotypes were represented overall. All isolates were typed by MLST and yielded 40 sequence types (STs). A web-accessibl...
متن کاملMultilocus sequence typing analysis of human and animal Clostridium difficile isolates of various toxigenic types.
A multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme was developed to study the genetic relationships and population structure of 72 Clostridium difficile isolates from various hosts, geographic sources, PCR ribotypes, and toxigenic types (determined by PCR targeting tcdA and tcdB genes). MLST was performed by DNA sequence analysis of seven housekeeping genes (aroE, ddl, dutA, tpi, recA, gmk, and sodA). ...
متن کاملMultilocus sequence typing of Mycobacterium xenopi.
Mycobacterium xenopi is an opportunistic mycobacterial pathogen of increasing clinical importance. Surveillance of M. xenopi is hampered by the absence of tools for genotyping and molecular epidemiology. In this study, we describe the development and evaluation of an effective multilocus sequence typing strategy for M. xenopi.
متن کاملMultilocus sequence typing of IncN plasmids.
OBJECTIVES Incompatibility group N (IncN) plasmids have been associated with the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance and are a major vehicle for the spread of bla(VIM-1) in humans and bla(CTX-M-1) in animals. A plasmid multilocus sequence typing (pMLST) scheme was developed for rapid categorization of IncN plasmids. METHODS Twelve fully sequenced IncN plasmids available at GenBank were ...
متن کاملMultilocus sequence typing of pathogenic Candida species.
Typing strains within a microbial species on the basis of DNA sequences at multiple loci has greatly advanced study of the epidemiology and evolutionary phylogenetics of many bacterial (9, 40, 60, 72) and fungal (26, 68) pathogens. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) schemes have now been published for five of the opportunistically pathogenic Candida species: C. albicans (6, 7), C. dubliniensis (...
