DNA probe and PCR-specific reaction for Lactobacillus plantarum

A 300 bp DNA fragment of Lactobacillus plantarum isolated by randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis was cloned and sequenced. This fragment was tested using a dot-blot DNA hybridization technique for its ability to identify Lact. plantarum strains. This probe hybridized with all Lact. plantarum strains tested and with some strains of Lact. pentosus , albeit more weakly. Two internal primers of this probe were selected (LbPl1 and LbPl2) and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was carried out. All Lact. plantarum strains tested amplified a 250 bp fragment contrary to the other LAB species tested. This specific PCR for Lact. plantarum was also performed from colonies grown on MRS medium with similar results. These methods enabled the rapid and specific detection and identification of Lact. plantarum .     

Highly sensitive fluorescent-labeled probes and glass slide hybridization for the detection of plant RNA viruses and a viroid

In this study, a modified method of the conventional RNA dot-blot hybridization was established, by replacing ~(32)p labels with CY5 labels and replacing nylon membranes with positive-charged glass slides, for detecting plant RNA viruses and a viroid. The modified RNA dot-blot hybridization method was named glass slide hybridization. The optimum efficiency of RNA binding onto the surfaces of activated glass slide was achieved using aminosilane-coated glass slide as a solid matrix and 5×saline sodium citrate (SSC) as a spotting solution. Using a CY5-labeled DNA probe prepared through PCR amplification, the optimized glass slide hybridization could detect as little as 1.71 pg of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) RNA. The sensitivity of the modified method was four times that of dot-blot hybridization on nylon membrane with a ~(32)P-labeled probe. The absence of false positive within the genus Potyvirus [potato virus A, potato virus Y (PVY) and zucchini yellow mosaic virus] showed that this method was highly specific. Furthermore, potato spindle tuber viroid (PSTVd) was also detected specifically. A test of 40 field potato samples showed that this method was equivalent to the conventional dot-blot hybridization for detecting PVY and PSTVd. To our knowledge, this is the first report of using dot-blot hybridization on glass slides with fluorescent-labeled probes for detecting plant RNA viruses and a viroid.     

Use of a chiA probe for detection of chitinase genes in bacteria from the Chesapeake Bay(1)

PCR primers specific for the chiA gene were designed by alignment and selection of highly conserved regions of chiA sequences from Serratia marcescens, Alteromonas sp., Bacillus circulans and Aeromonas caviae. These primers were used to amplify a 225 bp fragment of the chiA gene from Vibrio harveyi to produce a chiA gene probe. The chiA PCR primers and probe were used to detect the presence of the chiA gene in an assemblage of 53 reference strains and gave consistent results. Selected chiA fragments amplified by PCR were cloned and sequenced from nine known strains and from Chesapeake Bay isolates 6d and 11d. This confirmed the specificity and utility of the primers for detection of chiA-positive environmental strains. Over 1000 bacterial isolates from Chesapeake Bay water samples were tested for the presence of the chiA gene which was found to be present in 5-41% (average 21%) of the culturable bacterial community. The approach developed in this study was valuable for isolation and enumeration of chiA-positive bacteria in environmental samples.     

Oligonucleotide probe for detecting Enterobacteriaceae by in situ hybridization

AIMS: To develop oligonucleotide probes for visualizing bacteria belonging to Enterobacteriaceae. METHODS AND RESULTS: 24-mer oligonucleotide probe (probe D) was designed by comparison of 16S rDNA sequences of 35 species of Enterobacteriaceae, eight species of Vibrionaceae and six species of Pasteurellaceae. The sequence of the probe corresponding to the complementary sequence of a position 1251-1274 of Escherichia coli 16S rRNA was found to be a highly conserved region of 16S rDNA sequence in Enterobacteriaceae different from that of Vibrionaceae and Pasteurellaceae. The fluorescent dye-labelled probe was tested for the specificity by in situ hybridization and epifluorescence microscopy. Seventy-six out of 78 strains belonging to Enterobacteriaceae were visualized in an optimal hybridization condition. No bacterial strains belonging to Vibrionaceae (31 strains) and Gram-positive bacteria (three strains) were visualized. CONCLUSIONS: In situ hybridization using probe D allows the detection of bacterial cells belonging to Enterobacteriaceae without false positive reaction. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: In situ hybridization techniques using the probe D are potential tools for detecting Enterobacteriaceae in food and water samples.

Molecular detection methods developed for a systemic rickettsia-like bacterium (RLB) in Penaeus monodon (Decapoda: Crustacea)

Molecular detection methods were developed to aid in the diagnosis of a rickettsia-like bacterium (RLB) which caused severe mortalities of farm-raised Penaeus monodon in Madagascar. Using primers derived from the 16S rRNA gene of bacteria, a PCR assay was optimized to amplify this region of the genome of the RLB, using extracted DNA from infected P. monodon tissue as the template. The resulting amplified PCR product was sequenced and 2 novel primers were selected from the variable region of the gene. These primers amplified a 532 bp fragment of DNA originating from the rickettsia-infected samples. The PCR assay was optimized and tested on DNA extracted from specific pathogen-free (SPF) P. vannamei tissue and several other strains of bacteria. The PCR assay with the rickettsia-specific primers was specific for this RLB and did not amplify the other DNA samples tested. The 532 bp PCR-amplified fragment was labeled with digoxigenin (DIG) for in situ hybridization assays. This probe was tested on SPF, RLB and bacteria-infected shrimp specimens preserved in Davidson's fixative. The probe was specific for both natural and experimental rickettsial infections. Hybridization with this probe required a stringent temperature of 65 degrees C, otherwise cross-reactivity was observed with other types of bacteria.     

Isolation of a specific DNA fragment and development of a PCR-based method for the detection of Mycobacterium genavense

The rise of Mycobacterium genavense infections is making identification ever more important for diagnosis and treatment. Moreover, isolation and identification of M. genavense are made difficult by the lack of growth on solid media and by its low generation rate in BACTEC liquid media. Thus, amplification by PCR or similar techniques represents the only possibility of detecting and identifying M. genavense from tissue samples. In order to set up a simple and species-specific method based on the use of PCR and non-radioactive hybridization technique, we decided to search for and clone a specific DNA fragment of this bacterial species. In the present study, a 1734-bp fragment was isolated. This fragment was found to be highly specific for M. genavense strains. A species-specific pair of primers (MG22 and MG23) and two oligonucleotide probes (MG18 and MG19) were selected. They were successfully used to amplify and detect a 155-bp DNA fragment from the 13 available strains of M. genavense which were isolated from clinical specimens or from birds. Conversely, the primers and probes did not hybridize with DNA from any of the 20 other mycobacterial species tested. It is worth noting that the chosen primers and probes did not hybridize with DNA of M. simiae, although it is closely related to M. genavense. The present PCR technique uses species-specific primers for M. genavense. Followed by a non-radioactive hybridization technique on microplates it is able to distinguish M. genavense from other mycobacteria in one step, without sequencing or restriction analysis. On the basis of the Southern blot hybridization, PCR and sandwich hybridization results, we concluded that the isolated 1.7-kb sequence was specific for the M. genavense chromosome. The method developed here for M. genavense identification uses a simple methodology and commonly available reagents. Furthermore it can be easily automated.     

Detection of pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica using a digoxigenin labelled probe targeting the yst gene

A 145 base pair digoxigenin-d-UTP-labelled probe, specific for pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica heat-stable enterotoxin yst gene, was prepared by PCR. The probe was used in DNA-DNA colony hybridization and dot-blot hybridization assays. The specificity of the probe was confirmed using 52 strains representing all Yersinia spp., except Y. pestis . Out of a total of 25 Y. enterocolitica strains screened, the probe correctly identified all 18 pathogenic strains. Among the other Yersinia spp. screened, only one strain of Y. kristensenii was positively detected by the yst probe but could be differentiated by its weak signal response as compared with that obtained by pathogenic strains of Y. enterocolitica .
