Genetic Relationships among Reptilian and Mammalian Campylobacter fetus Strains Determined by Multilocus Sequence Typing [PDF]
Reptile Campylobacter fetus isolates and closely related strains causing human disease were characterized by multilocus sequence typing. They shared similar to 90% nucleotide sequence identity with classical mammalian C.

Molecular typing of dengue virus type 2 in Brazil [PDF]
Strain typing is a critical tool for molecular epidemiological analysis and can provide important information about the spread of dengue viruses. Here, we performed a molecular characterization of DEN-2 viruses isolated in Brazil during 1990-2000 from geographically and temporally distinct areas in order to investigate the genetic distribution of this ...

Novel SLCO2A1 mutations cause gender-differentiated pachydermoperiostosis
Primary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy (PHO) is a rare familial disorder with reduced penetrance for females. The genetic mutations associated with PHO have been identified in HPGD and SLCO2A1, which involved in prostaglandin E2 metabolism.

Molecular typing methods for Neisseria meningitidis [PDF]
Neisseria meningitidis is an important pathogen because it causes life-threatening infections. The rapid course of meningococcal disease and the capacity of some serogroups to cause large-scale epidemics necessitates the use of sensitive, reliable and rapid typing methods to characterise strains. Molecular typing techniques for N. meningitidis are used
