Features of Variable Number of Tandem Repeats in Yersinia pestis and the Development of a Hierarchical Genotyping Scheme
BACKGROUND Variable number of tandem repeats (VNTRs) that are widely distributed in the genome of Yersinia pestis proved to be useful markers for the genotyping and source-tracing of this notorious pathogen. In this study, we probed into the features of VNTRs in the Y. pestis genome and developed a simple hierarchical genotyping system based on optimized VNTR loci. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDI...
متن کاملassociation of variable number of tandem repeats in endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene with coronary artery disease
endo-derived nitric oxide (no) is synthesized from l-arginine by endothelium nitric oxide synthase (enos). since reduced no synthesis has been implicated in the development of coronary atherosclerosis; we hypothesized that polymorphisms of nos gene might be associated with increased susceptibility to this disorder and coronary artery disease (cad). we studied the 27 base pair tandem repeat poly...
متن کاملVNTR9 and VNTR10, two newly-found variable-number tandem repeat loci useful in MLVA genotyping of Bordetella pertussis
Background & Aims: Bordetella pertussis, the causative agent of whooping cough, continues to infect human hosts even in those populations where infants and children are routinely vaccinated. Causes of pertussis epidemiology are not fully identified unless strains of the pathogen are characterized by molecular means. Golbally, Multi Locus Variable Number of Tandem Repeats analysis (MLVA) has pro...
متن کاملvariable number tandem repeat (vntr) genotyping of hydatidiform mole in iranian patients
background: classification of molar gestation into complete hydatidiform mole (chm) and partial hydatidiform mole (phm) is done according to clinical, ultrasonographic, histologic and genetic criteria. however, making a distinction between chm and phm using histologic criteria alone may be difficult and several studies have shown that misclassifications are frequent, even for experienced pathol...
متن کاملmultilocus 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...
