Restriction fragment length polymorphism typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis.
Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) typing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a recently developed technique which allows strains of tuberculosis to be differentiated with a high degree of confidence. The application of this technique has enabled the patterns of transmission of tuberculosis to be elucidated with far greater certainty than was previously possible. This review will disc...
متن کاملRestriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP)
Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) is a technique in which organisms may be differentiated by analysis of patterns derived from cleavage of their DNA. If two organisms differ in the distance between sites of cleavage of a particular restriction endonuclease, the length of the fragments produced will differ when the DNA is digested with a restriction enzyme. The similarity of the pa...
متن کاملGenetic Heterogeneity among Leishmania major Isolates in Iran Determined by Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) and Multilocus Microsatellite Typing (MLMT)
Background & Aims: In recent years, molecular methods for characterizing genetic heterogeneity have found a major place in modern approaches. In this study, two different molecular techniques including Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) and Multi Locus microsatellite typing (MLMT) were carried out in order to evaluate genetic heterogeneity among isolates of Leishmania major in Iran...
متن کاملApplications of restriction fragment length polymorphism.
The availability of a variety of restriction endonuclease enzymes that cleave deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) at specific sites has made it possible to identify the presence of polymorphic regions in the isolated fragments. Such restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) results owing to a variation in the number of tandem repeats (VNTR) of a short DNA segment. These VNTR sequences can uniquel...
متن کاملFidelity of select restriction endonucleases in determining microbial diversity by terminal-restriction fragment length polymorphism.
An evaluation of 18 DNA restriction endonucleases for use in terminal-restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) analysis was performed by using richness and density indices in conjunction with computer simulations for 4,603 bacterial small-subunit rRNA gene sequences. T-RFLP analysis has become a commonly used method for screening environmental samples for precursory identification and ...
