Geographical distribution of Brucella melitensis inferred from rpoB gene variation
Introduction: Currently available tests have limitations for the identification of Brucella species and strains, and their genetic lineage. The genome sequence of the rpoB gene encoding the β-subunit of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase was investigated for ...

Disputed rpoB Mutations in Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Tuberculosis Treatment Outcomes
Discordant results between genotypic drug susceptibility testing (gDST) and phenotypic DST (pDST) for Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates with disputed mutations affect rifampin (RIF)-resistant (RR) and multidrug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis (TB) treatments due to a lack of practical clinical guidelines.

Enhanced heterogeneity of rpoB in Mycobacterium tuberculosis found at low pH. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to gain an insight into the molecular mechanisms of the evolution of rifampicin resistance in response to controlled changes in the environment.

The spread of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) is a growing problem in many countries worldwide. Resistance to one of the primary first-line drugs, rifampicin, is caused by mutations in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis rpoB gene. So-called borderline rpoB

Genotyping of the genus Proteus by rpoB sequence analysis
Background. The genetic relationship among different species within the genus Proteus has still not beenclarified and previous studies by rRNA gene restriction patterns (ribotypes) suggested a high geneticvariability in the presently recognised nomenspecies.Methods.

The rpoB gene of Mycobacterium tuberculosis [PDF]
A portion of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis gene encoding the beta subunit of RNA polymerase (rpoB) was amplified by PCR using degenerate oligonucleotides and used as a hybridization probe to isolate plasmid clones carrying the entire rpoB gene of M. tuberculosis H37Rv, a virulent, rifampin-susceptible strain.

Haloglomus irregulare gen. nov., sp. nov., a New Halophilic Archaeon Isolated from a Marine Saltern [PDF]
A halophilic archaeal strain, designated F16-60T, was isolated from Isla Cristina marine saltern in Huelva, Spain. Cells were pleomorphic, irregular, non-motile, and Gram-stain-negative. It produced red-pigmented colonies on agar plates.

rpoB sequence-based identification of Mycobacterium avium complex species [PDF]
The Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) comprises slowly growing mycobacteria responsible for opportunistic infections and zoonoses. The ability to speciate MAC isolates in the clinical microbiology laboratory is critical for determining the organism implicated in clinical disease and for epidemiological investigation of the source of infection ...
