Species Specific DNA Profiling Mycobacterial Genomes Using Polymerase Chain Reaction with Single Universal Primer (UP-PCR)
Three tuberculous, twenty-one non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) reference strains and seventy two isolates classified by biochemical tests were shown to produce specific sets of DNA fragments in a polymerase chain reaction with single universal primer (UP-PCR). A rather wide limit of tolerance for variations in procedure of PCR mixture preparation and thermocycling parameters was found. There...
متن کاملO-38: Concurrent Whole-Genome Haplotyping and Copy-Number Profiling of Single Cells
Background Methods for haplotyping and DNA copynumber typing of single cells are paramount for studying genomic heterogeneity and enabling genetic diagnosis. Before analyzing the DNA of a single cell by microarray or next-generation sequencing, a whole-genome amplification (WGA) process is required, but it substantially distorts the frequency and composition of the cell’s alleles. As a conseque...

متن کاملAncient DNA from Human and Animal
Research on ancient DNA (aDNA) has the potential to enable molecular biologists and archeologists to decipher certain aspects of history by direct looking into the past. However, several major problems in this field limit the applicability of aDNA studies, most importantly contamination with modern DNA and postmortem DNA degradation. In this study we extracted and analyzed aDNA obtained from ~3...
متن کاملRNAi technology: A Novel approaches against fungal infections
Despite the introduction of new antifungal agents, resistances to antifungal therapy continue to increase and outcome of invasive fungal infections treatment is frequently suboptimal. A large amount of the recent effort in antifungal drug discovery has focused on a limited set of targets with functions known or expected to be important for fungal viability and virulence. A variety of techniques...
