Multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis scheme for chlamydia felis genotyping: comparison with multilocus sequence typing.

Chlamydia felis is an important ocular pathogen in cats worldwide. A multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) system for the detection of tandem repeats across the whole genome of C. felis strain Fe/C-56 was developed. Nine selected genetic loci were tested by MLVA in 17 C. felis isolates, including the C. felis Baker vaccine strain, and 122 clinical samples from different geogr...

Comparison of multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis with multilocus sequence typing and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis for Enterococcus faecalis.

Enterococcus faecalis represents recently an important etiological agent of health care-associated infections (HAIs) and there is a need for evaluation and comparison of typing methods available for this microorganism. We tested multilocus VNTR (variable-number tandem repeats) analysis (MLVA) on a well-characterized collection of 153 clinical isolates of E. faecalis, corresponding to 52 multilo...

multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis for genotyping of shigella sonnei strains isolated from pediatric patients

aim: the aims of this study were to characterize iranian shigella sonnei strains isolated from pediatric cases and evaluate the utility of multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat (vntr) analysis (mlva) for genotyping of local s. sonnei strains. background: s. sonnei has become the dominant species in certain parts of iran. although pfge is still a gold standard for genotyping and source tracki...

Multilocus variable-number tandem repeat typing of Mycobacterium ulcerans.

The apparent genetic homogeneity of Mycobacterium ulcerans contributes to the poorly understood epidemiology of M. ulcerans infection. Here, we report the identification of variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) sequences as novel polymorphic elements in the genome of this species. A total of 19 potential VNTR loci identified in the closely related M. marinum genome sequence were screened in a co...

Selection and validation of a multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis panel for typing Shigella spp.

The Shigella genus has historically been separated into four species, based on biochemical assays. The classification within each species relies on serotyping. Recently, genome sequencing and DNA assays, in particular the multilocus sequence typing (MLST) approach, greatly improved the current knowledge of the origin and phylogenetic evolution of Shigella spp. The Shigella and Escherichia gener...
