Multilocus sequence typing breathes life into a microbial metagenome. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2006
Shot-gun sequencing of DNA isolated from the environment and the assembly of metagenomes from the resulting data has considerably advanced the study of microbial diversity.

Multilocus Sequence Typing as a Replacement for Serotyping in Salmonella enterica [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2012
Salmonella enterica subspecies enterica is traditionally subdivided into serovars by serological and nutritional characteristics. We used Multilocus Sequence Typing (MLST) to assign 4,257 isolates from 554 serovars to 1092 sequence types (STs). The majority of the isolates and many STs were grouped into 138 genetically closely related clusters called ...

Multilocus Sequence Typing for Characterization of Staphylococcus pseudintermedius [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2013
ABSTRACT Staphylococcus pseudintermedius is an opportunistic pathogen in dogs. Four housekeeping genes with allelic polymorphisms were identified and used to develop an expanded multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme. The new seven-locus technique shows S.

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.

Expanded Multilocus Sequence Typing for Burkholderia Species [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2009
ABSTRACT PCR primers targeting loci in the current Burkholderia cepacia complex multilocus sequence typing scheme were redesigned to (i) more reliably amplify these loci from B . cepacia complex species, (ii) amplify these same loci from additional

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 ...

Multilocus Sequence Typing of Mycobacterium xenopi [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2014
ABSTRACT Mycobacterium xenopi is an opportunistic mycobacterial pathogen of increasing clinical importance. Surveillance of M. xenopi is hampered by the absence of tools for genotyping and molecular epidemiology.

The multilocus sequence typing network: mlst.net [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 2005
The unambiguous characterization of strains of a pathogen is crucial for addressing questions relating to its epidemiology, population and evolutionary biology. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST), which defines strains from the sequences at seven house-keeping loci, has become the method of choice for molecular typing of many bacterial and fungal ...
