Classification of methanogenic bacteria by 16S ribosomal RNA characterization [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1977 The 16S ribosomal RNAs from 10 species of methanogenic bacteria have been characterized in terms of the oligonucleotides produced by T 1 RNase digestion. Comparative analysis of these data reveals the methanogens to constitute a distinct phylogenetic group containing two major divisions. These organisms appear to be

16S Ribosomal RNA PCR Versus Conventional Diagnostic Culture in the Investigation of Suspected Bacterial Keratitis. [PDF]
Transl Vis Sci Technol, 2020 Purpose The purpose of this study was to compare conventional diagnostic culture (CDC) to 16S ribosomal RNA polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis for diagnosing bacterial keratitis. Methods Samples collected from 100 consecutive patients presenting to

Updating the 97% identity threshold for 16S ribosomal RNA OTUs [PDF]
Bioinformatics, 2017 AbstractThe 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene is widely used to survey microbial communities. Sequences are often clustered into Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs) as proxies for species. The canonical clustering threshold is 97% identity, which was proposed in 1994 when few 16S rRNA sequences were available, motivating a reassessment on current data ...

A systematic algorithm using 16S ribosomal RNA for accurate diagnosis of pneumonia pathogens [PDF]
Scientific ReportsOver half of community-acquired pneumonia cases are caused by a few dozen bacterial species, and accurate identification of these pathogens is essential for effective treatment. In this study, we developed a reliable diagnostic method using 16S ribosomal

Aptazyme-Mediated Regulation of 16S Ribosomal RNA
Chemistry & Biology, 2010 Developing artificial genetic switches in order to control gene expression via an external stimulus is an important aim in chemical and synthetic biology. Here, we expand the application range of RNA switches to the regulation of 16S rRNA function in Escherichia coli.

Next-generation Sequencing of 16S Ribosomal RNA Gene Amplicons [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2014 One of the major questions in microbial ecology is “who is there?” This question can be answered using various tools, but one of the long-lasting gold standards is to sequence 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene amplicons generated by domain-level PCR ...
