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 ...

Multilocus sequence typing scheme that provides both species and strain differentiation for the Burkholderia cepacia complex [PDF]

, 2005
A single multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme was developed for precise characterization of the opportunistic pathogens of Burkholderia cepacia complex (BCC), a group composed of at least nine closely related species.

Extended Sequence Typing of Campylobacter spp., United Kingdom

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
Supplementing Campylobacter spp. multilocus sequence typing with nucleotide sequence typing of 3 antigen genes increased the discriminatory index achieved from 0.975 to 0.992 among 620 clinical isolates from Oxfordshire, United Kingdom.

Multilocus Sequence Typing of Clostridium difficile [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2010
ABSTRACT A robust high-throughput multilocus sequence typing (MLST) scheme for Clostridium difficile was developed and validated using a diverse collection of 50 reference isolates representing 45 different PCR ribotypes and 102 isolates from recent clinical samples.

Multilocus Sequence Typing System for Campylobacter jejuni [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 2001
ABSTRACT The gram-negative bacterium Campylobacter jejuni has extensive reservoirs in livestock and the environment and is a frequent cause of gastroenteritis in humans. To date, the lack of (i) methods suitable for population genetic analysis and (ii) a universally accepted nomenclature has hindered ...
