Multilocus Sequence Typing Tool for Cyclospora cayetanensis [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2016
Because the lack of typing tools for Cyclospora cayetanensis has hampered outbreak investigations, we sequenced its genome and developed a genotyping tool. We observed 2 to 10 geographically segregated sequence types at each of 5 selected loci.

Inaccurate Multilocus Sequence Typing of Acinetobacter baumannii [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
Multilocus sequence typing has been useful for genotyping pathogens in surveillance and epidemiologic studies. However, it cannot reflect the true relationships of isolates for species with very dynamic genomes.

A multilocus sequence typing scheme for Mycobacterium abscessus complex (MAB-multilocus sequence typing) using whole-genome sequencing data

International Journal of Mycobacteriology, 2019
Background:Mycobacterium abscessus is a rapid growing nontuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) and a clinically significant pathogen capable of causing variable infections in humans that are difficult to treat and may require months of therapy/surgical ...

refMLST: reference-based multilocus sequence typing enables universal bacterial typing [PDF]

BMC Bioinformatics
Background Commonly used approaches for genomic investigation of bacterial outbreaks, including SNP and gene-by-gene approaches, are limited by the requirement for background genomes and curated allele schemes, respectively.

Development of a Providencia stuartii multilocus sequence typing scheme [PDF]

Frontiers in Microbiology
IntroductionThe Providencia genus is assuming greater clinical relevance among infections caused by Enterobacterales also because of its intrinsic and acquired resistance to last-resort antibiotics. However, despite having been known and studied for over

Multilocus sequence typing of IncN plasmids [PDF]

Journal of Antimicrobial Chemotherapy, 2011
Incompatibility group N (IncN) plasmids have been associated with the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance and are a major vehicle for the spread of bla(VIM-1) in humans and bla(CTX-M-1) in animals. A plasmid multilocus sequence typing (pMLST) scheme was developed for rapid categorization of IncN plasmids.Twelve fully sequenced IncN plasmids ...

Phylogeny of Flavobacteria Group Isolated from Freshwater Using Multilocus Sequencing Analysis [PDF]

Genomics & Informatics, 2013
Sequence analysis of the 16S rRNA gene has been widely used for the classification of microorganisms. However, we have been unable to clearly identify five Flavobacterium species isolated from a freshwater by using the gene as a single marker, because ...
