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 ...

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 Mycoplasma agalactiae [PDF]

Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2011
Mycoplasma agalactiae is the main cause of contagious agalactia, a serious disease of sheep and goats, which has major clinical and economic impacts. We have developed a multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme using the sequenced genomes of the M. agalactiae strains PG2 and 5632.

Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) for lineage assignment and high resolution diversity studies in Trypanosoma cruzi. [PDF]

, 2011
BACKGROUND: Multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is a powerful and highly discriminatory method for analysing pathogen population structure and epidemiology. Trypanosoma cruzi, the protozoan agent of American trypanosomiasis (Chagas disease), has remarkable

Multilocus Sequence Typing of Total-Genome-Sequenced Bacteria [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2012
ABSTRACT Accurate strain identification is essential for anyone working with bacteria. For many species, multilocus sequence typing (MLST) is considered the “gold standard” of typing, but it is traditionally performed in an expensive and time-consuming manner.

Genetic Relationships among Reptilian and Mammalian Campylobacter fetus Strains Determined by Multilocus Sequence Typing [PDF]

, 2010
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 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.

Multilocus sequence typing of a global collection of pasteurella multocida isolates from cattle and other host species demonstrates niche association [PDF]

, 2011
Background- Pasteurella multocida causes disease in many host species throughout the world. In bovids, it contributes to bovine respiratory disease (BRD) and causes haemorrhagic septicaemia (HS).

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.
