Type-specific detection of echovirus 30 isolates using degenerate reverse transcriptase PCR primers.

Following an approach used to specifically identify polioviruses and enterovirus 71, we have developed reverse transcriptase (RT) PCR primers containing mixed-base residues or deoxyinosine at positions of codon degeneracy. These primers permit specific RT-PCR amplification of echovirus 30 (E30) sequences by targeting sites that encode conserved amino acid motifs within the major capsid protein,...

Selecting Degenerate Multiplex PCR Primers

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) Genotyping is an important molecular genetics technique in the early stages of producing results that will be useful in the medical field. One of the proposed methods for performing SNP Genotyping requires amplifying regions of DNA surrounding a large number of SNP loci. In order to automate a portion of this method and make the use of SNP Genotyping more wi...

Identification of a cytochrome P450 gene by reverse transcription--PCR using degenerate primers containing inosine.

A cytochrome P450-like gene, tentatively named P450CMEF, was amplified by a mixed oligonucleotide-primed amplification of cDNA from C3H mouse embryo fibroblast cells, designated 10T1/2, that had been treated with 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene (DMBA) or benz[a]anthracene (BA). A set of inosine-containing degenerate primers that were targeted to two conserved regions of known cytochrome P450 cDN...

Rapid group-, serotype-, and vaccine strain-specific identification of poliovirus isolates by real-time reverse transcription-PCR using degenerate primers and probes containing deoxyinosine residues.

We have adapted our previously described poliovirus diagnostic reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) assays to a real-time RT-PCR (rRT-PCR) format. Our highly specific assays and rRT-PCR reagents are designed for use in the WHO Global Polio Laboratory Network for rapid and large-scale identification of poliovirus field isolates.

Detection of Treponema pallidum by a sensitive reverse transcriptase PCR.

Syphilis is diagnosed by serologic testing or by identification of the causative agent, Treponema pallidum. The bacterium has historically been detected in clinical specimens by dark-field microscopy, immunostaining with polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies, or the rabbit inoculation test (RIT). RIT is considered to be very sensitive and specific, although it is available only in research settin...
