Development of VNTR-Based Test System for V. cholerae Typing

Проблемы особо опасных инфекций, 2011
Analysis of VNTRs was used for typing of V. cholerae strains deposited in microbial culture collection of 48 Central Research Institute. The most informative loci and flanking primers were chosen, VNTR profiles were compiled, and allele variability ...

The shortcut of mycobacterial interspersed repetitive unit-variable number tandem repeat typing for Mycobacterium tuberculosis differentiation

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The 24-loci mycobacterial interspersed repetitive unit-variable number tandem repeat (MIRU-VNTR) genotyping has been used as an international standard method for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) genotyping. However, different optimized VNTR loci sets for

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

PLoS 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 ...

Clustering of Beijing genotype Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates from the Mekong delta in Vietnam on the basis of variable number of tandem repeat versus restriction fragment length polymorphism typing

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2013
Background In comparison to restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) typing, variable number of tandem repeat (VNTR) typing is easier to perform, faster and yields results in a simple, numerical format.

VNTR analysis reveals unexpected genetic diversity within Mycoplasma agalactiae, the main causative agent of contagious agalactia

BMC Microbiology, 2008
Background Mycoplasma agalactiae is the main cause of contagious agalactia, a serious disease of sheep and goats, which has major clinical and economic impacts. Previous studies of M.

Epidemiological links between tuberculosis cases identified twice as efficiently by whole genome sequencing than conventional molecular typing: A population-based study. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Patients with Mycobacterium tuberculosis isolates sharing identical DNA fingerprint patterns can be epidemiologically linked. However, municipal health services in the Netherlands are able to confirm an epidemiological link in only around 23% of the ...

Mechanisms of disease-associated SINE-VNTR-Alus

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 2022
SINE-VNTR-Alus (SVAs) are the youngest retrotransposon family in the human genome. Their ongoing mobilization has generated genetic variation within the human population. At least 24 insertions to date, detailed in this review, have been associated with disease.

Development of a technique for molecular typing of Bacillus anthracis strains using new VNTR and INDEL markers

Журнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии
Introduction. Bacillus anthracis, the pathogen of a particularly dangerous zoonotic disease known as anthrax, requires strict epidemiological control and is characterized by high genetic homogeneity, which necessitates the development of genotyping ...

METHODOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO MYCOBACTERIUM TUBERCULOSIS GENOTYPING FOR EVOLUTIONARY AND EPIDEMIOLOGICAL RESEARCH

Инфекция и иммунитет, 2014
. Current genome evolution of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is marked by virtual absence of the lateral gene transfer leading to the clonal population of this species consisting of separate genetic families. Standard typing method of M. tuberculosis (IS6110-

Per3 VNTR polymorphism and chronic heart failure [PDF]

Biomedical Papers, 2014
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between gene Period3 (Per3) variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) polymorphism and chronic heart failure (CHF).The study subjects (372 patients of Caucasian origin with CHF and 332 healthy controls) were genotyped for Per3 VNTR polymorphism using an allele-specific PCR.No significant differences ...
