Nucleotide sequence of the 5S ribosomal RNA gene of Bartonella bacilliformis.

Nucleotide sequence and comparison of the 5S ribosomal RNA genes of Rochalimaea henselae, R.quintana and Brucella abortus.

A comparative phylogenetic analysis of Theileria spp. by using two two "18S ribosomal RNA" and "Theileria annulata merozoite surface antigen" gene sequences

More than 185 species, strains and unclassified Theileria parasites are categorized in the Entrez Taxonomy. The accurate diagnosis and proper identification of the causative agents are important for understanding the epidemiology, prevention and appropriate treatment. This study aims to discuss the importance of two genes of Theileria annulata 18S ribosomal RNA (18S rRNA) and Theileria annulata...

16S rRNA sequences of Bartonella bacilliformis and cat scratch disease bacillus reveal phylogenetic relationships with the alpha-2 subgroup of the class Proteobacteria.

The primary structures of 16S rRNAs of Bartonella bacilliformis, an isolate of the cat scratch disease (CSD) bacillus, and a strain phenotypically similar to the CSD bacillus were determined by reverse transcriptase sequencing. These microorganisms were found to be members of the alpha-2 subgroup of the class Proteobacteria. The sequence from B. bacilliformis was most closely related to the rRN...

Molecular characterization and proposal of a neotype strain for Bartonella bacilliformis.

Bartonella bacilliformis, the etiologic agent of bartonellosis, was characterized biochemically and by DNA hybridization, guanine-plus-cytosine content, genome size, and 16S rRNA sequencing. DNAs from the two strains in our collection exhibited 97% relatedness in hydroxyapatite reactions done at 55 degrees C (optimal reassociation criterion) and 100% relatedness in reactions done at 70 degrees ...

The nucleotide sequence of 5S rRNA from Scenedesmus obliquus.

The nucleotide sequence of the cytoplasmic 5S ribosomal RNA from Scenedesmusobliquus has been determined using post-labelling techniques. The sequence is closely related to the 5S RNA sequence of Chlorella and contains all the areas of invariant sequence which appear to be conserved in plant cytoplasmic 5S RNA species.
