Characterization of wine yeasts by temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE).
نویسندگان
چکیده
18S rDNA from 74 wine yeast strains was amplified by PCR using specific primers, and the products analyzed by temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE). TGGE is a useful method in screening the genotypes of the wine yeasts. Intraspecific differentiation was achieved on the basis of TGGE in some cases, whereas in others identical bands for strains classified as separate species were obtained. Heteroduplex analysis was capable of differentiating between similar bands produced by two different species, thereby enhancing the resolution of the TGGE, yielding valuable information in a short time without the need of sequencing or complicated equipment.

Analysis of hepatitis C virus quasispecies populations by temperature gradient gel electrophoresis.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) forms complex quasispecies populations which consist of a large number of closely related genetic variants. This genetic heterogeneity may cause antigenic variation or drug resistance. We used heteroduplex analysis by temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE) to characterize genetic variants of HCV. The high resolution of TGGE was proven by comparison of DNA sequen...
متن کاملDetecting single base substitutions, mismatches and bulges in DNA by temperature gradient gel electrophoresis and related methods.
Temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE) and related methods can separate DNA fragments that differ by a single base pair or defect. This article describes the basic features of TGGE, and reviews the theoretical model of DNA unwinding and its ability to predict DNA mobility in a temperature gradient gel. Recent applications of TGGE and related methods that were directed at detecting poin...

متن کاملTemperature gradient gel electrophoresis analysis of 16S rRNA from human fecal samples reveals stable and host-specific communities of active bacteria.
The diversity of the predominant bacteria in the human gastrointestinal tract was studied by using 16S rRNA-based approaches. PCR amplicons of the V6 to V8 regions of fecal 16S rRNA and ribosomal DNA (rDNA) were analyzed by temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE). TGGE of fecal 16S rDNA amplicons from 16 individuals showed different profiles, with some bands in common. Fecal samples fro...
متن کاملEvaluation of temperature gradient gel electrophoresis for the analysis of prey DNA within the guts of invertebrate predators.
The utility of temperature gradient gel electrophoresis (TGGE) as a means of analysing the gut contents of predators was evaluated. Generalist predators consume multiple prey species and a species-specific primer approach may not always be a practical means of analysing predator responses to prey diversity in complex and biodiverse ecosystems. General invertebrate primers were used to amplify t...
