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.

Multilocus Sequence Typing [PDF]
, 2009 Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) was first proposed in 1998 as a typing approach that enables the unambiguous characterization of bacterial isolates in a standardized, reproducible, and portable manner using the human pathogen Neisseria meningitidis as the exemplar organism.

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 ...

Novel multilocus sequence typing scheme reveals high genetic diversity of human pathogenic members of the Fusarium incarnatum-F. equiseti and F. chlamydosporum species complexes within the United States [PDF]
, 2009 Species limits within the clinically important Fusarium incarnatum-F. equiseti and F. chlamydosporum species complexes (FIESC and FCSC, respectively) were investigated using multilocus DNA sequence data.

Lack of continuity between Cronobacter biotypes and species as determined using multilocus sequence typing [PDF]
, 2013 The accuracy of the Cronobacter biotyping scheme was compared with the 7-loci multilocus sequence typing scheme. Biotyping did not reliably assign species level identification, as only half (17/31) of the biotype variants were unique to any of the seven ...

Molecular typing of the pneumococcus and its application in epidemiology in sub-Saharan Africa
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2013 Molecular typing of the pneumococcus has played a crucial role in understanding the epidemiology of the organism. However, most of what is known about molecular epidemiology of the pneumococcus pertains to the developed world.

Limitations of Ribotyping as Genotyping Method for Corynebacterium ulcerans
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020 We conducted molecular typing of a Corynebacterium ulcerans isolate from a woman who died in Japan in 2016. Genomic DNA modification might have affected the isolate’s ribotyping profile.

High-throughput multilocus sequence typing: bringing molecular typing to the next level. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is a widely used system for typing microorganisms by sequence analysis of housekeeping genes. The main advantage of MLST in comparison to other typing techniques is the unambiguity and transferability of sequence data ...
