Large sequence polymorphisms classify Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains with ancestral spoligotyping patterns.

چکیده
Genomic deletion analysis revealed that strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis exhibiting spoligotyping patterns with almost all spacers present belong either to a strain lineage that includes the W-Beijing strain family or to the ancestral strain lineage of M. tuberculosis.

BACKGROUND Tuberculosis is one of the most infectious diseases in the world. Molecular typing methods such as spoligotyping, and VNTR (variable number tandem repeats), IS6110 in the NTF region and LSP (large sequence polymorphisms) analysis are generally useful tools for the resolution of various issues related to the classical epidemiology of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis). MET...

Background & Aim: Molecular epidemiology is the using of molecular techniques (e.g. Spoligotyping, RFLP VNTR) in order to study bacterial distribution in human populations. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of all genotypes in M. tuberculosis strains typed by spoligotyping and to determine the associated risk factors in patients with different nationalities residing in...

Spacer oligonucleotide (spoligotyping) analysis is a rapid polymerase chain reaction-based method of DNA fingerprinting the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex. We examined spoligotype data using a bioinformatic tool (sequence logo analysis) to elucidate undisclosed phylogenetic relationships and gain insights into the global dissemination of strains of tuberculosis. Logo analysis of spoligotypi...
متن کاملAssociations between Mycobacterium tuberculosis Strains and Phenotypes
To inform development of tuberculosis (TB) control strategies, we characterized a total of 2,261 Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex isolates by using multiple phenotypic and molecular markers, including polymorphisms in repetitive sequences (spoligotyping and variable-number tandem repeats [VNTRs]) and large sequence and single-nucleotide polymorphisms. The Beijing family was strongly associate...
متن کاملGenotypic analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in Bangladesh and prevalence of the Beijing strain.
Genotypic analysis was performed on 48 Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex strains collected from a hospital in Dhaka city. Deletion analysis showed that the isolates were all M. tuberculosis; 13 of them were found to be of the "ancestral" type, while 35 were of the "modern" type, indicating that both endemic (ancestral type) and epidemic (modern type) strains cause tuberculosis in Bangladesh. G...
