RAPD analysis of Yersinia enterocolitica 总被引:10,自引:1,他引:9
A total of 87 isolates of Yersinia enterocolitica were examined with randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) by use of three different primers. Based on the RAPD profiles, the strains could be divided into three major groups: (1) the pathogenic American serotypes, O: 8, O: 13ab, O: 20 and O: 21; (2) the pathogenic European serotypes, O: 3, O: 5,27 and O: 9; and (3) the nonpathogenic serotypes. Five tested strains of the American serotype O: 4 gave unique profiles with YCPEL, but did not give reproducible profiles with the other primers. The European serotypes could be further subdivided into a group consisting of strains of O: 3 and O: 5,27 and a group of strains of O: 9. RAPD profiling provides an easy approachable method to divide isolates of Y. enterocolitica into pathogenic and nonpathogenic strains and further to differentiate between the pathogenic isolates. 相似文献

Thirteen collection strains and field isolates of Aspergillus carbonarius were examined by using various genotypic and phenotypic approaches. Restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of the ribosomal RNA gene cluster and the mitochondrial DNA of the strains revealed only slight variations, except for one field isolate (IN7), which exhibited completely different ribosomal RNA gene cluster and mitochondrial DNA patterns. The mitochondrial DNAs of these strains were found to be much larger (45 to 57 kb) than those found earlier in the A. niger aggregate. Strain-specific characters could be detected by the random amplified polymorphic DNA technique. Isoenzyme analysis and examination of carbon source utilisation patterns of the strains also revealed some intraspecific variability, though much smaller than that observed by using DNA-based techniques. The dendrograms constructed based on genotypic and phenotypic data suggest that strain IN7 might represent a new subspecies of A. carbonarius.Abbreviations kb

Summary Twenty-four strains of Oenococcus oeni were isolated from different Chinese wines. Differentiation of isolates was carried out by analysis of total soluble cell
protein patterns and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) patterns. The results indicated that the total soluble cell protein
patterns could be used to distinguish different genera but fail to distinguish different strains. It was also found that strain
RAPD pattern can successfully distinguish isolates by UPGMA analysis. The RAPD profiles (107 different prints) were strain
specific and two main groups of strains were screened. 相似文献

Amplified functional DNA restriction analysis to determine catechol 2,3-dioxygenase gene diversity in soil bacteria 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
To determine phylogenetic diversity of a functional gene from strain collections or environmental DNA amplifications, new and fast methods are required. Catechol 2,3-dioxygenase (C23O) subfamily I.2.A genes, known to be of crucial importance for aromatic degradation, were used as a model to adapt the amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis to functional genes. Sequence data of C23O genes from 13 reference strains, representing the main branches of the C23O family I.2.A phylogeny, were used for simulation of theoretical restriction patterns. Among other restriction enzymes, Sau3A1 theoretically produce characteristic profiles from each subfamily I.2.A member and their similarities reassembled the main divergent branches of C23O gene phylogeny. This enzyme was used to perform an amplified functional DNA restriction analysis (AFDRA) on C23O genes of reference strains and 19 isolates. Cluster analyses of the restriction fragment profiles obtained from isolates showed patterns with distinct similarities to the reference strain profiles, allowing to distinguish four different groups. Sequences of PCR fragments from isolates were in close agreement with the phylogenetic correlations predicted with the AFDRA approach. AFDRA thus provided a quick assessment of C23O diversity in a strain collection and insights of its gene phylogeny affiliation among known family members. It cannot only be easily applied to a vast number of isolates but also to define the predominant polymorphism of a functional gene present in environmental DNA extracts. This approach may be useful to differentiate functional genes also for many other gene families. 相似文献

A group of subgingival isolates of C. albicans recovered from Italian HIV-positive (HIV+) subjects were characterized both phenotypically and genotypically. Phenotyping of the isolates was carried out by a biotyping method based on the enzyme profiles, carbohydrate assimilation patterns and boric acid resistance of the yeasts. Genotyping was performed through randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis. Five biotypes were found among the 29 subgingival C. albicans strains examined. The predominant biotypes were A1R (55.17%), A1S (24.14%), and A2R (13.79%), while the biotypes A11R and A13R were represented by a single isolate each. RAPD profiles identified 15 genotypes among the 29 isolates. Almost every individual harboured his/her own specific isolate and in three out of the six subjects with multiple isolates (two to six each) more than one genotype (two to six) was found. The biotype distribution we found is consistent with previous reports on C. albicans isolates from other oral sources, whereas the resistance to boric acid was highly frequent in subgingival strains. RAPD analysis showed high genetic heterogeneity within subgingival isolates, also when isolates were phenotypically identical. These findings, obtained from HIV+ subjects living in Southern Italy, may be useful as baseline information on subgingival C. albicans colonization in the Mediterranean area. 相似文献

We analyzed restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) of 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region (ISR) of Aeromonas species. A total of 69 isolates belonging to 18 DNA hybridization groups (HG; equivalent of genomic species) were used in this study. ISRs were amplified by PCR and the products were digested with four restriction endonucleases: Hin6I, Csp6I, TaqI, and TasI. The RFLP patterns obtained after digesting by particular enzymes revealed ISR polymorphism of isolates allocated to individual genomic species. The combined Hin6I, Csp6I, TaqI, and TasI restriction profiles were examined by Dice coefficient (SD) and unweighted pair group method of clustering (UPGMA). The isolates were allocated into 15 groups, three strains were unclustered. The strains belonging to the following genomic species: A. hydrophila, A. bestiarum, A. salmonicida, A. caviae, A. media, A. schubertii, A. allosaccharophila, A. popoffii, and A. culicicola formed distinct clusters. Strains belonging to HG 6, HG 7, HG 11, and HG 16 revealed similar combined RFLP patterns and constituted one group. Similarly, the strains of A. jandaei (HG 9) and the type strain of A. trota were allocated into one cluster. Two isolates of HG 14 formed distinct cluster. We noticed a genetic diversity among A. veronii isolates, the strains were clustered in two groups. Our study showed that combined ISR-RFLP analysis may be used for identification of some species of Aeromonas. 相似文献

A total of 77 tannase producing lactobacilli strains isolated from human feces or fermented foods were examined for their genotypic profiles and intensities of tannase production. With a PCR-based assay targeting recA gene, all strains except one isolate were assigned to either Lactobacillus plantarum, L. paraplantarum, or L. pentosus whereas a 16/23S rDNA targeted PCR-based assay identified all except 6 isolates (inclusive of the above one isolate) as one of the closely related species. Subsequent DNA/DNA hybridization assays revealed that these 6 exceptional isolates showed low homology (between 1.2% and 55.8% relative DNA binding) against type strains of the three species. Supplemental carbohydrate fermentation profiles on the 6 isolates indicated that two of them were identified as L. acidophilus, one as Pediococcus acidilactici, one as P. pentosaceus, and two remained unidentifiable. The evidence suggests that the 16/23S rDNA targeted PCR assay can be used as a reliable identification tool for the closely related lactobacilli, and that the tannase gene is widely distributed within members of the Lactobacillaceae family. Meanwhile, a randomly amplified polymorphism DNA (RAPD) analysis revealed that all except 8 isolates were well allocated in 4 major RAPD clusters, though not species specific, consisting of two L. plantarum predominant clusters, one L. paraplantarum predominant, and one L. pentosus predominant. The RAPD patterns of the 8 non-clustered isolates, which consisted of the 6 unidentifiable isolates and 2 isolates identified as L. pentosus, were <40% similarity to those belonging to the 4 clusters. A quantitative assay of the tannase activities showed that there was a marked variation in the activities among the strains, which did not correlate with either species identification or clustering by RAPD. 相似文献

Phenotypic features and sequences of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions and the 5.8 S rRNA gene of type or neotype strains and other isolates of the 17 species currently assigned to Aspergillus section Circumdati and some potentially related species were analyzed. Parsimony analysis of sequence data indicated that Aspergillus section Circumdati is paraphyletic. Aspergillus campestris, A. lanosus, and A. dimorphicus with A. sepultus were found to be more closely related to Aspergillus sections Candidi, Flavi, and Cremei, respectively. These results were also supported by phenotypic data. A. robustus and A. ochraceoroseus were found not to be related to any of the species examined. Species of the proposed revised Aspergillus section Circumdati formed two main clades, which could also be distinguished based on phenotypic methods. Phylogenetic analysis of sequence data of other isolates assigned to species of the revised section indicates that either some of these isolates were misidentified or species concepts of A. ochraceus, A. melleus, and A. petrakii should be reconsidered. 相似文献

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Haemophilus parasuis is the causative agent of Glasser's disease and is a pathogen of swine in high-health status herds. Reports on serotyping of field strains from outbreaks describe that approximately 30% of them are nontypeable and therefore cannot be traced. Molecular typing methods have been used as alternatives to serotyping. This study was done to compare random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) profiles and whole cell protein (WCP) lysate profiles as methods for distinguishing H. parasuis reference strains and field isolates. RESULTS: The DNA and WCP lysate profiles of 15 reference strains and 31 field isolates of H. parasuis were analyzed using the Dice and neighbor joining algorithms. The results revealed unique and reproducible DNA and protein profiles among the reference strains and field isolates studied. Simpson's index of diversity showed significant discrimination between isolates when three 10mer primers were combined for the RAPD method and also when both the RAPD and WCP lysate typing methods were combined. CONCLUSIONS: The RAPD profiles seen among the reference strains and field isolates did not appear to change over time which may reflect a lack of DNA mutations in the genes of the samples. The recent field isolates had different WCP lysate profiles than the reference strains, possibly because the number of passages of the type strains may affect their protein expression. 相似文献

Restriction endonuclease fingerprinting analysis of Canadian isolates of Aeromonas salmonicida 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Restriction endonuclease fingerprinting (REF) analysis was used to examine total cellular DNA prepared from 56 independent field isolates of the fish pathogen, Aeromonas salmonicida. DNA was digested singly with the restriction enzymes EcoRI and HindIII, and the resulting fragments separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and visualized by silver staining. The REF patterns of typical isolates of A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida were distinct from those of A. hydrophila, A. salmonicida subsp. achromogenes, A. salmonicida subsp. masoucida, and atypical isolates of A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida. Differences between strains of typical A. salmonicida subsp. salmonicida could also be distinguished. Canadian isolates examined could be assigned to 1 of 12 different groups (REF groups), with the majority of the isolates belonging to REF groups 1 and 5. REF group 1 strains were isolated from British Columbia and New Brunswick while REF group 5 isolates were found in Ontario. None of the European strains examined had REF patterns identical to those of Canadian isolates. Based on REF analysis, there was little genetic heterogeneity detected among 23 isolates from two short-term studies of naturally occurring infections. Several different REF groups were seen among A. salmonicida collected over a 10-year period from coho salmon from the Credit River. Consistent with earlier biochemical and hybridization studies, the REF data suggest that A. salmonicida is a clonal pathogen. REF analysis can, however, permit the identification of subgroups, which may be useful in epidemiological studies. 相似文献

Two parents and 15 monosporous isolates were morphologically characterized and were found to vary in their growth characteristics
on malt extract agar medium. The isolates also varied in enzymes activity profile with respect to exoglucanase, endoglucanase,
xylanase, laccase and polyphenol oxidase. Further in polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of Internal Transcribed
Spacer (ITS) region of 5.8S rDNA, an amplicon of same length (720 bp) was amplified from two parents and all the monosporous
isolates, which revealed that all belong to the same species. The combined phylogenetic analysis of random amplified polymorphic
DNA (RAPD) profiles obtained with five decamer primers (operon kit B) series primers also revealed intra-specific variation
of 60% with in the two parent strains and their single spore isolates (SSIs). However, the variations between the parent strains
and their SSIs were lesser and it was 50 and 32% in parent strains, OE-210 and OE-12, respectively. Based upon phylogenetic
analysis, the isolates of parent strain, OE-210 formed 7 distinct phylogenetic clades, while of strain OE-12 formed 4 clades.
The study elucidates that isolates showing variations in morphological growth characteristics and enzymes activity also showed
variations in their RAPD profiles, revealed through phylogenetic analysis of RAPD profiles. It is also evident from the study
that morphological characterization along with enzymes activity assay of strains is essential before their use in yield evaluation
trials with final authentication from molecular analysis. 相似文献

We investigated whether primers able to specifically amplify a 0.7-kb DNA fragment from the conserved cpx genes could be applied to analyze A. pleuropneumoniae field isolates. The specific cpx primers were tested on 120 strains of A. pleuropneumoniae and other NAD-dependent field isolates from healthy and diseased animals to analyze A. pleuropneumoniae isolates from pigs in Brazil. We found that PCR and hybridization were able to discriminate between isolates of A. pleuropneumoniae and other bacteria. The 0.7-kb cpx DNA fragments were amplified from all 63 A. pleuropneumoniae isolates from herds with clinical symptoms and were isolated from lesions of acute cases of swine pleuropneumonia, both serotypable and nonserotypable. The PCR was also applied to 57 field isolates obtained from animals of apparently healthy herds, and the amplified cpx product was present in four serotypable and only two out of eleven A. pleuropneumoniae nonserotypable isolates. All nonserotypable A. pleuropneumoniae isolates revealed the apxA amplification pattern compatible with previously known serotypes. Some nonserotypable isolates might represent a population of isolates that originally were serotypable but lost the ability to react with serotype-specific antisera or might belong to novel serotypes. The PCR method applied is highly sensitive for serotypable A. pleuropneumoniae strains and for nonserotypable strains isolated from acute cases of swine pleuropneumoniae in Brazil. 相似文献

AIMS: The objective of this study was to subtype Arcobacter butzleri isolates using RAPD-PCR. METHODS AND RESULTS: Thirty-five A. butzleri isolates obtained from chicken carcasses were examined. PCR-mediated DNA fingerprinting technique with primers of the variable sequence motifs was used to detect polymorphism within the isolates. Eleven distinct DNA profiles were obtained as follows: Of the 35 strains, 10 as profile 4; seven as profile 1; five as profile 3; three as profiles 2 and 9; two as profile 10; one as profiles 5, 6, 7, 8 and 11. CONCLUSIONS: Chicken carcasses sold in markets were found to be contaminated with several different strains of A. butzleri. RAPD-PCR technique was found to be a useful technique for distinguishing A. butzleri isolates. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: The presence of several different A. butzleri strains on chicken carcasses may indicate multiple sources of contamination. The epidemiological role of A. butzleri in human and animal diseases should be investigated further. 相似文献

Members of the Thermococcales are anaerobic Archaea belonging to the kingdom Euryarchaea that are studied in many laboratories as model organisms for hyperthermophiles. We describe here a molecular analysis of 86 new Thermococcales isolates collected from six different chimneys of a single hydrothermal field located in the 13 degrees N 104 degrees W segment of the East Pacific ridge at a depth of 2,330 m. These isolates were sorted by randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) fingerprinting into nine groups, and nine unique RAPD profiles were obtained. One RAPD group corresponds to new isolates of Thermococcus hydrothermalis, whereas all other groups and isolates with unique profiles are different from the 22 reference strains included in this study. Analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequences of representatives of each RAPD group and unique profiles showed that one group corresponds to Pyrococcus strains, whereas all the other isolates are Thermococcus strains. We estimated that our collection may contain at least 11 new species. These putative species, isolated from a single area of hydrothermal deep-sea vents, are dispersed in the 16S rRNA tree among the reference strains previously isolated from diverse hot environments (terrestrial, shallow water, hydrothermal vents) located around the world, suggesting that there is a high degree of dispersal of Thermococcales: About one-half of our isolates contain extrachromosomal elements that could be used to search for novel replication proteins and to develop genetic tools for hyperthermophiles. 相似文献

The localization of pyruvate carboxylase (cytosolic or mitochondrial) was studied in nine different Aspergillus species (14 strains). In some species (A. aculeatus, A. flavus, A. foetidus, A. nidulans, A. ochraceus, and A. sojae), the pyruvate carboxylase activity could be detected only in the cytosolic fraction of the cells. Pyruvate carboxylase has been found only in the mitochondrial fraction of two strains of Aspergillus wentii. In Aspergillus oryzae and in five strains of Aspergillus niger, pyruvate carboxylase activity was detected both in the mitochondrial fraction and in the cytosol. There was no quantitative or qualitative correlation between the activities of pyruvate carboxylase in the mitochondrial and cytosolic fractions of the cells and the ability of the various Aspergillus strains to accumulate different organic acids. 相似文献

DNA fragments were amplified by PCR from all tested strains of Aeromonas hydrophila, A. caviae, and A. sobria with primers designed based on sequence alignment of all lipase, phospholipase C, and phospholipase A1 genes and the cytotonic enterotoxin gene, all of which have been reported to have the consensus region of the putative lipase substrate-binding domain. All strains showed lipase activity, and all amplified DNA fragments contained a nucleotide sequence corresponding to the substrate-binding domain. Thirty-five distinct nucleotide sequence patterns and 15 distinct deduced amino acid sequence patterns were found in the amplified DNA fragments from 59 A. hydrophila strains. The deduced amino acid sequences of the amplified DNA fragments from A. caviae and A. sobria strains had distinctive amino acids, suggesting a species-specific sequence in each organism. Furthermore, the amino acid sequence patterns appear to differ between clinical and environmental isolates among A. hydrophila strains. Some strains whose nucleotide sequences were identical to one another in the amplified region showed an identical DNA fingerprinting pattern by repetitive extragenic palindromic sequence-PCR genotyping. These results suggest that A. hydrophila, and also A. caviae and A. sobria strains, have a gene encoding a protein with lipase activity. Homologs of the gene appear to be widely distributed in Aeromonas strains, probably associating with the evolutionary genetic difference between clinical and environmental isolates of A. hydrophila. Additionally, the distinctive nucleotide sequences of the genes could be attributed to the genotype of each strain, suggesting that their analysis may be helpful in elucidating the genetic heterogeneity of Aeromonas. 相似文献

Molecular characterization of the toxic cyanobacterium Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii and design of a species-specific PCR 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Cylindrospermopsis raciborskii is a toxic-bloom-forming cyanobacterium that is commonly found in tropical to subtropical climatic regions worldwide, but it is also recognized as a common component of cyanobacterial communities in temperate climates. Genetic profiles of C. raciborskii were examined in 19 cultured isolates originating from geographically diverse regions of Australia and represented by two distinct morphotypes. A 609-bp region of rpoC1, a DNA-dependent RNA polymerase gene, was amplified by PCR from these isolates with cyanobacterium-specific primers. Sequence analysis revealed that all isolates belonged to the same species, including morphotypes with straight or coiled trichomes. Additional rpoC1 gene sequences obtained for a range of cyanobacteria highlighted clustering of C. raciborskii with other heterocyst-producing cyanobacteria (orders Nostocales and Stigonematales). In contrast, randomly amplified polymorphic DNA and short tandemly repeated repetitive sequence profiles revealed a greater level of genetic heterogeneity among C. raciborskii isolates than did rpoC1 gene analysis, and unique band profiles were also found among each of the cyanobacterial genera examined. A PCR test targeting a region of the rpoC1 gene unique to C. raciborskii was developed for the specific identification of C. raciborskii from both purified genomic DNA and environmental samples. The PCR was evaluated with a number of cyanobacterial isolates, but a PCR-positive result was only achieved with C. raciborskii. This method provides an accurate alternative to traditional morphological identification of C. raciborskii. 相似文献
