Sequencing of 16S rRNA Gene: A Rapid Tool for Identification of Bacillus anthracis
In a bioterrorism event, a tool is needed to rapidly differentiate Bacillus anthracis from other closely related spore-forming Bacillus species. During the recent outbreak of bioterrorism-associated anthrax, we sequenced the 16S rRNA generom these ...

Genetic Diversity and Potential Function of Microbial Symbionts Associated with Newly Discovered Species of Osedax Polychaete Worms [PDF]
We investigated the genetic diversity of symbiotic bacteria associated with two newly discovered species of Osedax from Monterey Canyon, CA, at 1,017-m (Osedax Monterey Bay sp. 3 "rosy" [Osedax sp. MB3]) and 381-m (Osedax Monterey Bay sp.

Two different 16S rRNA genes in a mycobacterial strain [PDF]
Sequencing of the gene coding for 16S rRNA (16S rDNA) is a well-established method used to identify bacteria, particularly mycobacteria. Unique sequences allow identification of a particular genus and species. If more than one 16S rDNA is present on one mycobacterial genome, their sequences are assumed to be strictly or almost identical.

Background The 16S rRNA gene is used extensively in bacterial phylogenetics, in species delineation, and now widely in microbiome studies. However, the gene suffers from intragenomic heterogeneity, and reports of recombination and an unreliable ...

Introduction. Sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene is the predominant method for assessing microbial communities and strain molecular identification. The short reads (2nd generation sequencing)-based technology does not allow analysis beyond the 16S rRNA gene.

Novel Methanotrophs of the Family Methylococcaceae from Different Geographical Regions and Habitats [PDF]
Terrestrial methane seeps and rice paddy fields are important ecosystems in the methane cycle. Methanotrophic bacteria in these ecosystems play a key role in reducing methane emission into the atmosphere.

Genetic Environment of 16S rRNA Methylase Gene rmtD [PDF]
ABSTRACT The genetic environment of the 16S rRNA methylase gene rmtD was investigated. rmtD was flanked by a novel IS CR motif located downstream of class I integron In 163 in the original Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Correlating microbial community profiles with geochemical data in highly stratified sediments from the Arctic Mid-Ocean Ridge [PDF]
Microbial communities and their associated metabolic activity in marine sediments have a profound impact on global biogeochemical cycles. Their composition and structure are attributed to geochemical and physical factors, but finding direct correlations ...

Taxonomic and Characterization Methods of Streptomyces: A Review
The 16S ribosomal RNA gene is the gold standard for taxonomic identification and phylogenetic study of most of the bacteria. However, the resolution of 16S rRNA gene is found to be insufficient to distinguish closely related Streptomyces species within ...
