A Lactobacillus helveticus-Specific DNA Probe Detects Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms in This Species.

چکیده
A cloned 2-kb EcoRI fragment (fragment f) from a 34-kb plasmid of Lactobacillus helveticus CNRZ 1094 was shown by dot blot to specifically hybridize to total DNAs of 75 L. helveticus strains. No hybridization was found with L. acidophilus, L. crispatus, L. delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus, L. delbrueckii subsp. lactis, L. gasseri, or L. intestinalis strains. When Southern blots of EcoRI digests of L. helveticus strains were probed with fragment f, these strains displayed restriction fragment length polymorphisms on the basis of which they could be grouped into several clusters.

Genetic relationships among collections of the Persian sturgeon, Acipenser percicus, in the south Caspian Sea detected by mitochondrial DNA Restriction fragment length polymorphisms
In the present study, mitochondrial DNA polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay was used to assess the population structure and genetic relationships among six Persian sturgeon, Acipenser persicus populations from south Caspian Sea along the Iranian coast. The complete nucleotide dehydrogenase subunit 5 (NADH 5) region of mtDNA amplified by PCR was di...
متن کاملLinkage analysis of myotonic dystrophy and sequences on chromosome 19 using a cloned complement 3 gene probe.
Variations in DNA sequence generate polymorphisms which can be followed through families. A cloned gene specific probe for human complement 3 (C3) was hybridised to DNA samples digested with restriction endonucleases. The C3 probe detects several restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) that occur frequently in the general population. These DNA alleles can be readily used in linkage an...
متن کاملThe Frequencies of three Factor IX-Linked Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms in Iranian Patients with Hemophilia B
Background: Hemophilia B is an X-linked recessive coagulation disorder caused by factor IX deficiency. Analysis of factor IX gene polymorphisms is considered the best approach for prenatal diagnosis and carrier detection of hemophilia B where the identification of gene mutation is not easily possible. Objective: To study the frequency of three factor IX-linked restriction fragment length polym...
متن کاملLactobacillus suntoryeus Cachat and Priest 2005 is a later synonym of Lactobacillus helveticus (Orla-Jensen 1919) Bergey et al. 1925 (Approved Lists 1980).
Strain R0052, isolated from a North American dairy starter culture, was initially identified as Lactobacillus acidophilus based on phenotypic analyses. However, upon sequencing the 16S rRNA gene, it became clear that the isolate was very highly related to Lactobacillus suntoryeus, Lactobacillus helveticus and Lactobacillus gallinarum, as similarities ranging from 99.3 to 99.8 % were observed. A...
متن کاملMolecular Taxonomic Characterisation of Probiotic Strain Lactobacillus Sp. 50p1
In recent years interest in the probiotic lactobacilli has been stimulated by the use of these bacteria in products that are claimed to confer health benefits on the consumer. The probiotic effects are usually strain-specific, meaning that a correct identification is important to link the strain to the specific health effect. Taxonomical characterization of probiotic strains only in phenotypic ...
