PCR analysis of the cryI insecticidal crystal family genes from Bacillus thuringiensis.

A method allowing rapid and accurate identification of different subgroups within the insecticidal crystal CryI protein-producing family of Bacillus thuringiensis strains was established by using PCR technology. Thirteen highly homologous primers specific to regions within genes encoding seven different subgroups of B. thuringiensis CryI proteins were described. Differentiation among these strains was determined on the basis of the electrophoretic patterns of PCR products. B. thuringiensis strains, isolated from soil samples, were analyzed by PCR technology. Small amounts of bacterial lysates were assayed in two reaction mixtures containing six to eight primers. This method can be applied to rapidly detect the subgroups of CryI proteins that correspond with toxicity to various lepidopteran insects.     

Development of a PCR assay for identification of the Bacillus cereus group species

Aims:  A PCR technique was developed as a reliable and rapid identification method for the Bacillus cereus group species, based on a unique conserved sequence of the motB gene (encoding flagellar motor protein) from B. cereus , Bacillus thuringiensis and Bacillus anthracis .
Methods and Results:  Primer locations were identified against eight strains of the B. cereus group spp. from nucleotide sequences available in the National Centre for Biotechnology Information database. The PCR assay was applied for the identification of 117 strains of the B. cereus group spp. and 19 strains from other microbial species, with special emphasis on foodborne pathogens.
Conclusion:  The designed cross-species primers are group specific and did not react with DNA from other Bacillus and non- Bacillus species either motile or not. The primers system enabled us to detect 10³ CFU of B. cereus cells per millilitre of sample.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  Bacillus cereus group spp. belongs to one of the most prevalent foodborne pathogens. Bacterial growth results in production of different toxins; therefore, consumption of food containing >10⁶ bacteria per gram may result in emetic and diarrhoeal syndromes. A rapid and sensitive bacterial detection method is significant for food safety.     

New PCR-based methods for yeast identification

AIMS: To characterize reference yeast strains and identify indigenous strains isolated from wine fermentations by PCR methods. METHODS AND RESULTS: We compared several PCR techniques for yeast identification. We used oligonucleotide primers that are complementary to (i) intron splice sites, (ii) REP and (iii) ERIC elements to produce PCR fingerprints that display specific patterns between the different yeast species. These three techniques were used to characterize 41 reference yeast strains belonging to 15 different species and to identify 40 indigenous strains isolated from grape must and wine fermentations. Species-specific banding patterns were obtained with the three PCR-techniques with different degrees of intraspecific differentiation depending on the method. By comparing the PCR fingerprints of unknown isolates with those produced by reference strains, we identified yeast strains isolated from an industrial wine fermentation. CONCLUSIONS: All three PCR techniques are rapid, reliable and simple methods of yeast identification. As far as we know, this is the first time that the primers designed for amplifying repetitive elements in bacteria have been successfully used in yeast. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Industry needs rapid, reliable and simple methods of yeast identification. The proposed PCR techniques will allow to achieve this objective.     

Identification and differentiation of Staphylococcus carnosus and Staphylococcus simulans by species-specific PCR assays of sodA genes

The aim of this study was to design species-specific PCR assays for rapid and reliable identification and differentiation of Staphylococcus (S.) carnosus and S. simulans strains. Two different sets of primers, targeting the manganese-dependent superoxide dismutase (sodA) gene of S. carnosus and S. simulans, respectively, were designed. Species-specificity of both sets of primers was evaluated by using 93 strains, representing 26 different species of the genus Staphylococcus, 3 species of the genus Kocuria (K.), 1 species of the genus Micrococcus (Mic.) and 1 species of the genus Macrococcus (Mac.) as reference. By using primers simF and simR the expected PCR fragment was obtained only when purified DNA from S. simulans strains was used. Amplification performed by using primers carF and carR produced a PCR fragment of the expected length, when DNA from strains of S. carnosus and S. condimenti were used as template. Nevertheless, DraI digestion of the carF/carR PCR fragment allowed a clear differentiation of strains of these two species. Species-specific PCR assays designed during this study, overcoming many of the limitations of the traditional identification procedures, can be considered a valid strategy for detection and identification of S. carnosus and S. simulans strains. The rapidity (about 4h from DNA isolation to results), the reliability and low cost of the PCR procedures established suggests that the methods may be profitably applied for specific detection and identification of S. carnosus, S. condimenti and S. simulans strains in starter cultures and meat products.

Polymerase chain reaction identification of Bacillus sporothermodurans from dairy sources

AIMS: A new polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method for the identification of Bacillus sporothermodurans strains from sterilized or ultrahigh temperature-treated milk and milk products and from other non-milk sources and environments, including the dairy farm. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two strains from raw milk and feed concentrate could be allocated to B. sporothermodurans based on 16S rDNA sequencing and DNA-DNA hybridization results. Two specific PCR primers were derived from the 16S rRNA gene of B. sporothermodurans. CONCLUSIONS: The PCR identification method was validated using a collection of B. sporothermodurans strains from different sources and on a large collection of dairy and non-dairy Bacillus spp. and other relevant taxa. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This PCR method was used as a screening method for strains with very heat-resistant endospores, isolated at the dairy farm level after heat treatment for 30 min at 100 degrees C. Seventeen strains isolated at the dairy farm were identified as B. sporothermodurans. They originated mainly from feed concentrate and also from soy, pulp and silage. The PCR identification method described here can, therefore, contribute to a better understanding of the route by which B. sporothermodurans contaminates raw and/or heat-treated milk.     

PCR amplification and direct sequencing of gyrB genes with universal primers and their application to the detection and taxonomic analysis of Pseudomonas putida strains.

Degenerate PCR primers, UP-1 and UP-2r, for the amplification of DNA gyrase subunit B genes (gyrB) were designed by using consensus amino acid sequences of gyrases from Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas putida, and Bacillus subtilis. In addition to the degenerate sequences, these primers have sequences at the 5' end which allow direct sequencing of amplified PCR products. With these primers, DNA segments of the predicted size were amplified from a variety of gram-negative and gram-positive genera. The nucleotide sequences of the amplified gyrB DNA from three P. putida strains were determined directly from the amplified fragments. The base substitution frequency of gyrB between the strains of P. putida was much higher than that of the 16S rRNA gene. With a specific set of PCR primers, it was possible to amplify gyrB fragments selectively from P. putida or its subgroups. The direct sequencing method of gyrB developed in this study provides a rapid and convenient system for bacterial identification, taxonomic analysis, and monitoring of bacteria in the natural environment.     

A rapid method for identification of typical Leuconostoc species by 16S rDNA PCR-RFLP analysis

A polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method was developed to detect and identify typical Leuconostoc species. This method utilises a set of specific primers for amplification of the 16S rDNA region of typical Leuconostoc species. All Leuconostoc-type strains, all Leuconostoc isolates from kimchi, Korea's traditional, fermented vegetable product, and strains from closely related genera were examined to verify the identification by this method. The primers resulted in amplification only for nine typical Leuconostoc spp., but not for any other genera tested. The size of the amplified products was 976 bp and the amplicons of the different species could be differentiated from each other with MseI, HaeIII and Tsp509I endonucleases, except for the species Leuconostoc argentinum and Leuconostoc lactis, which were indistinguishable. A PCR-RFLP method for the typical Leuconostoc species was optimized to identify a large number of isolates from fermented vegetable product. This PCR-RFLP method enables the rapid and reliable identification of Leuconostoc species and to distinguish them from the other phylogenetically related lactic acid bacteria in food samples.     

Detection and differentiation of Listeria spp. by a single reaction based on multiplex PCR.

The iap gene encodes the protein p60, which is common to all Listeria species. A previous comparison of the DNA sequences indicated conserved and species-specific gene portions. Based on these comparisons, a combination consisting of only five different primers that allows the specific detection and differentiation of Listeria species with a single multiplex PCR and subsequent gel analysis was selected. One primer was derived from the conserved 3' end and is specific for all Listeria species; the other four primers are specific for Listeria monocytogenes, L. innocua, L. grayi, or the three grouped species L. ivanovii, L. seeligeri, and L. welshimeri, respectively. The PCR method, which also enables the simultaneous detection of L. monocytogenes and L. innocua, was evaluated against conventional biotyping with 200 food hygiene-relevant Listeria strains. The results indicated the superiority of this technique. Thus, this novel type of multiplex PCR may be useful for rapid Listeria species confirmation and for identification of Listeria species for strains isolated from different sources.
