Comparison of inferred relatedness based on multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis and whole genome sequencing of Vibrio cholerae O1

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 2016
Vibrio cholerae causes cholera, a severe diarrheal disease. Understanding the local genetic diversity and transmission of V. cholerae will improve our ability to control cholera.

Molecular characterization of Salmonella Enteritidis : comparison of an optimized multi-locus variable-number of tandem repeat analysis (MLVA) and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Salmonella Enteritidis (SE) is a genetically homogenous serovar, which makes optimal subtype discrimination crucial for epidemiological research. This study describes the development and evaluation of an optimized multiple-locus variable number tandem ...

Mutation patterns of amino acid tandem repeats in the human proteome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background: Amino acid tandem repeats are found in nearly one-fifth of human proteins. Abnormal expansion of these regions is associated with several human disorders.

Development of a hierarchical variable-number tandem repeat typing scheme for Mycobacterium tuberculosis in China.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Molecular typing based on variable-number tandem repeats (VNTR) analysis is a promising tool for identifying transmission of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. However, the currently proposed 15- and 24-locus VNTR sets (VNTR-15/24) only have limited resolution ...

RAPID DISCRIMINATION AMONG METHICILLIN RESISTANT STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS ISOLATES USING VARIABLE NUMBER TANDEM REPEAT ANALYSIS IN A SAMPLE OF IRAQI PATIENTS AND

open access: yesThe Iraqi Journal of Agricultural science, 2021
There is so little information available in Iraq about genetic variability in methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), so current study aimed to use six tandem repeat loci of multilocus variable number tandem repeat (MLVA) typing to ...

Variable-number tandem-repeat markers for typing Mycobacterium intracellulare strains isolated in humans

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2010
Background Mycobacterium intracellulare, a species of the Mycobacterium avium complex, may be the cause of severe lung, lymphatic node, skin and bone/joint infections, as well as bacteriemia.

Multiple-locus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) genotyping of human Brucella isolates in Malaysia

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2015
BackgroundBrucellosis is one of the most common zoonotic diseases worldwide. It can cause acute febrile illness in human and is a major health problem. Studies in human brucellosis in Malaysia is limited and so far no genotyping studies has been done on ...

Multilocus Variable-Number Tandem-Repeat Polymorphism among Brazilian Enterococcus faecalis Strains [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Microbiology, 2004
ABSTRACT Multilocus variable-number tandem-repeat analysis (MLVA) for seven genomic loci was developed for Enterococcus faecalis . MLVA and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) resulted in 37 and 31 genotypes among 83 strains, respectively. Both typing schemes were highly concordant (90.4%).

Genetic diversity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex strains isolated from patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Anambra State, Nigeria

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mycobacteriology, 2016
In this study, we analyzed Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) genetic diversity in Anambra State, Nigeria based on spoligotyping followed by 5-loci exact tandem repeats (ETRs).
