Towards a phylogeny of the clostridia based on 16S rRNA sequences.
The 16S rRNA sequences of 17 species of the genus Clostridium were determined by direct sequencing of their PCR amplified genes. The sequences were aligned with those from other known clostridial species and representative low G + C Gram-positive relatives, and a phylogenetic tree was constructed. It was evident from the comparative sequence analysis that the genus Clostridium as presently cons...
متن کاملTowards a phylogeny of the genus Vibrio based on 16S rRNA sequences.
The inter- and intrageneric relationships of the genus Vibrio were investigated by performing a comparative analysis of the 16S rRNAs of 10 species, including four pathogenic representatives. The results of immunological and 5S rRNA studies were confirmed in that the genus is a neighboring taxon of the family Enterobacteriaceae. With regard to the intrageneric structure, Vibrio alginolyticus, V...
متن کاملPhylogeny of urate oxidase producing bacteria: on the basis of gene sequences of 16S rRNA and uricase protein
Uricase or Urate oxidase (urate:oxygen oxidoreductase, EC 1.7.3.3), a peroxisomal enzyme which is found in many bacteria, catalyzes the oxidative opening of the purine ring of urate to yield allantoin, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen peroxide. In this study, the phylogeny of urate oxidase (uricase) producing bacteria was studied based on gene sequences of 16S rRNA and uricase protein. Repres...
متن کاملMitochondrial Phylogeny of Namib Day Geckos (Rhoptropus) Based on Cytochrome b and 16S rRNA Sequences
We examined phylogenetic relationships among the Namib day geckos (genus Rhoptropus) using DNA sequence data from the mitochondrial cytochrome b (cytb) and 16S ribosomal RNA genes. Maximum-parsimony analysis of the cytb, 16S, and combined (cytb/16S) datasets each recovered an identical single most-parsimonious tree, revealing two well-supported clades: (1) Rhoptropus afer 1 Rhoptropus bradfield...
متن کاملBacterial phylogeny based on 16S and 23S rRNA sequence analysis.
Molecular phylogeny increasingly supports the understanding of organismal relationships and provides the basis for the classification of microorganisms according to their natural affiliations. Comparative sequence analysis of ribosomal RNAs or the corresponding genes currently is the most widely used approach for the reconstruction of microbial phylogeny. The highly and less conserved primary a...
