The 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer regions (ISRs) of Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. necrophorum and F. necrophorum subsp. funduliforme were characterized. Products of two sizes, about 360 bp (small) and 530 bp (large), were generated by PCR amplification from the 16S-23S rRNA ISR of all the strains tested. The large and small 16S-23S rRNA ISRs of F. necrophorum exhibited a level of sequence similarity of 93.9% to 99.7% and 94.2% to 98.6% homologies within the species, respectively. Only the large spacer regions in these bacteria contained one or two tRNA genes. F. necrophorum subsp. necrophorum contains the isoleucine and alanine tRNA gene, whereas F. necrophorum subsp. funduliforme contains the isoleucine tRNA gene.  相似文献

The nucleotide sequences of the DNA gyrase B subunit gene (gyrB) of Fusobacterium necrophorum subsp. necrophorum, F. necrophorum subsp. funduliforme and F. varium were determined and analyzed together with those of F. nucleatum subsp. nucleatum and F. nucleatum subsp. vincentii. On the phylogenetic tree constructed, the strains of each fusobacterial species formed distinct clusters with deep sublines. The degree of sequence similarity within each cluster was 93.2% or more, whereas similarities between clusters ranged from 70.1 to 72.7%. These clusters were recovered with 100% bootstrap probabilities and are in very good agreement with the species of Fusobacterium. These data suggest that gyrB is an accurate genealogical marker for the classification of the fusobacterial taxa considered in this study.  相似文献

The 16S rRNA gene of 39 S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strains and two S. equi subsp. equi strains was amplified by polymerase chain reaction and subsequently digested with the restriction enzyme Hinc II. A restriction profile with two fragments with sizes of 1250 bp and 200 bp could be observed for both S. equi subsp. equi strains and for 30 of the 39 S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strains indicating a sequence variation within the V2 region of the 16S rRNA gene of the remaining nine S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus isolates. A segment of the 16S rRNA gene including the hypervariable V2 region of 11 S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus and two S. equi subsp. equi could be amplified by PCR and sequenced. The sequence of the V2 region of eight S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strains appeared to be identical or almost identical to the sequence of the two S. equi subsp. equi strains. The sequence of the remaining three S equi subsp. zooepidemicus strains differed significantly from the sequence of S. equi subsp. equi. These differences allowed a division of S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strains into two 16S rRNA types and might possibly have consequences for the taxonomic position of these phenotypically indistinguishable strains of one subspecies. A molecular typing could additionally be performed by amplification of the gene encoding the 16S-23S rRNA spacer region. A single amplicon of the spacer gene of 1100 bp could be observed for one S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus, an amplicon of 950 bp for two S. equi subsp. equi strains and 10 S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strains, a amplicon of 780 bp for 27 S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strains and a single amplicon of 600 bp for one S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strain. The variations of the V2 region of the 16S rRNA gene and the size variations of the 16S-23S rRNA spacer gene were not related to each other. Both variations could be used for molecular typing of this species, possibly useful in epidemiological aspects.  相似文献

In cattle, sheep, and other ruminants, clostridial myonecrosis (gas gangrene) is mostly caused by Clostridium chauvoei, C septicum, C novyi and C sordellii. A polymerase chain reaction (PCR) system using common primers designed from multiple alignment of the 16S rRNA and 23S rRNA genes of Clostridium species was developed to identify pathogenic clostridia. The PCR was performed with total DNA from 26 strains which included seven different Clostridia species. These bacteria were differentiated at species level by the different PCR product patterns. To characterise the 16S-23S rDNA spacer regions of these clostridia further, most PCR products of these bacteria were sequenced. The smallest PCR products of each bacterium represented the fundamental 16S-23S rDNA spacer region; larger PCR products of each bacterium were caused by insertion sequences, i.e. tRNA gene sequences. The authors' observations indicate that the PCR patterns of the 16S-23S rDNA spacer regions have the potential to be used as an identification marker of pathogenic clostridia in gas gangrene.  相似文献

Conventional serological methods for the identification of canine mycoplasma isolates depend on the availability of a panel of species-specific diagnostic antisera and are not always reliable in terms of specificity. To enable simultaneous identification of field isolates, PCR-RFLP analysis of the 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer region was used to characterize the type strains of the 12 currently described canine mycoplasmas of the Genus Mycoplasma which represent the "classic" non-hemotropic species. The use of 16S-23S rDNA PCR in the first step of this analysis revealed specific size differences of amplicons which allowed to classify these 12 canine Mycoplasma species into three groups. Depending on the length of the amplicon, subsequent RFLP analysis of PCR products using two restriction endonucleases in a single digest (ApoI/DdeI or TaqI/VspI) generated unique banding patterns. For further evaluation of the 16S-23S rDNA PCR-RFLP assay system as identification and differentiation tool, a total of 262 field isolates collected from the canine genital tract were tested. PCR-RFLP results for 251 field isolates correlated with traditional serological test results. The remaining 11 isolates had an RFLP pattern distinct from the type strains included in this study and were identified by 16S rDNA sequencing as closely related to M. sp. HRC689. The PCR-RFLP assay established in this study enabled a rapid, accurate and easily performed identification and differentiation of all 12 currently described non-hemotropic canine Mycoplasma species.  相似文献

We developed a new molecular method of typing Streptococcus suis based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of a large fragment of rRNA genes, including a part of the 16S and 23S genes and the 16S-23S intergenic spacer region (ISR), followed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis with RsaI or MboII endonuclease. The 16S-23S ISRs of 5 S. suis isolates were sequenced and compared. Size and sequence polymorphisms were observed between the S735 reference strain and the 4 wild-type strains. The genetic relationships between 138 independent S. suis strains belonging to various serotypes, isolated from swine or human cases, were determined. The discriminatory power of the method was > 0.95, the threshold value for interpreting typing results with confidence (0.954 with RsaI and 0.984 with RsaI plus MboII). The in vitro reproducibility was 100%. The strains isolated from humans were less genetically diverse than the strains isolated from pigs. For the first time, 2 molecular patterns (R6, M9) were significantly associated with S. suis serotype 2 strains. This genetic tool could be valuable in distinguishing individual isolates of S. suis during epidemiologic investigations.  相似文献

Fifty-one chlamydial isolates from birds collected in Switzerland were classified by amplification and restriction analysis of the 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer region as Chlamydophila psittaci. The aim was to characterise a broad panel of chlamydial strains from birds and to apply and verify the methods of classification and differentiation described for chlamydial organisms. Two of the six known avian chlamydial serovars (A and B) were found by serotyping with monoclonal antibodies. One isolate was not typable. Digestion of ompA-PCR amplicons by AluI generated four distinct restriction patterns (genotypes A, B, F and G). Genotypes A and B correlated in most cases to serovars A and B, respectively. One serovar A isolate was verified as genotype B instead of A and one serovar B isolate belonged to genotype A. The non-serotypable isolate was of genotype F and one serovar A generated genotype G. OmpA sequences of one strain of each genotype were determined and compared to data bank entries. Amino acid sequences of genotype A and B strains corresponded well, showing more than 98.0% homology. The homologies of genotypes F and G sequences to genotype A strain were 82.0 and 83.0% respectively.  相似文献

Bacterial superantigens are one of the major virulence factors produced by Streptococcus pyogenes and Staphylococcus aureus. The two novel superantigen encoding genes seeM and seeL were described for S. equi subsp. equi which is known as the causative agent of strangles in equids. In the present study previously characterized S. equi subsp. equi strains and strains of various other animal pathogenic streptococcal species and subspecies were investigated for the presence of the superantigen encoding genes seeM and seeL by polymerase chain reaction. According to these studies seeL and seeM appeared to be a constant characteristic of all investigated S. equi subsp. equi strains. Surprisingly, one S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strain (S.z. 122) was also positive for both genes. The species identity of this S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strain could additionally be confirmed by sequencing the 16S rRNA gene and the 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region. The superantigen encoding genes could not be found among additionally investigated S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strains or among strains of seven other streptococcal species. The seeL and seeM genes of the S. equi subsp. equi strain S.e. CF32 and the genes szeL and szeM of the S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus strain S.z. 122 were cloned and sequenced. A sequence comparison revealed a high degree of sequence homology between seeL, szeL, speL and seeM, szeM and speM, respectively. The superantigenic toxins L and M seemed to be widely distributed virulence factors of S. equi subsp. equi, rare among S. equi subsp. zooepidemicus but did not occur among a number of other animal pathogenic streptococcal species.  相似文献

Bacterial cultures from 32 living and dead farmed white-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus) with necrobacillosis yielded Fusobacterium necrophorum from nine individuals, F. varium from six individuals, and Arcanobacterium pyogenes from 16 individuals. The isolates were characterized biochemically using automated identification systems. Gram-stained smears suggested the presence of Fusobacterium spp. in eight cases from which organisms were not cultured. Minimum inhibitory concentration determinations in 23 strains of gram-negative anaerobic bacteria detected resistance to enrofloxacin and clindamycin. Enrofloxacin resistance was detected in A. pyogenes isolates, and although biochemical profiling indicated that the deer strains of A. pyogenes could be grouped, it is uncertain whether these biochemical characteristics correlate with antigenic or virulence factors. Deer-specific or autogenous vaccines may provide a useful alternative to generic vaccines.  相似文献

To study the molecular genetic evolution characteristics of Haemophilus parasuis(Hps), PCR was used to determine the 16S rRNA gene of the strain XY0501 isolated from local pigs in Henan province, and genetic evolution analysis was conducted. The results showed that the amplication of 16S rRNA of the isolate XY0501 was 822 bp, the nucleotide sequence similarity among the reference strains was 97.1% to 99.3%, and 99.3% with the strain serotype 5. The phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA revealed that the Hps isolate XY0501 from local pigs belonged to the same branch with reference strain serotype 5. The results identified that the Hps infection could cause severe clinical symptoms in pigs, but infection source need to be further investigation,in addition, 16S rRNA of Hps of different serotypes was conserved and no species difference.  相似文献

Streptococcus dysgalactiae serogroup C, G and L strains were investigated by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using oligonucleotide primers designed according to species-specific parts of the 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region. The oligonucleotide primers with specificity for the 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region allowed a correct identification of all S. dysgalactiae serogroups C, G and L strains investigated. No cross-reactivities could be observed with any of the control strains indicating the usefulness of PCR-technology to identify the serologically heterogeneous species S. dysgalactiae.  相似文献

The Greek chlamydial strains FAS, FAG, VPG and LLG, isolated from aborted sheep or goat foetuses, had been previously characterized as divergent on the basis of mouse cross-protection experiments, with LLG and its homologous POS significantly different from the rest in inclusion morphology, polypeptide profiles and reactivity with monoclonal antibodies. To determine the genetic basis of their divergence the 16S-23S ribosomal intergenic spacer was analysed by RFLP analysis of PCR 16SF2/23R amplicons. Using the restriction enzymes BfaI, SfcI, HpaI, BclI, DdeI and AclI, the strains were classified as Chlamydophila abortus. However, digestion with RsaI made it possible to differentiate strains FAS, FAG and VPG from strains LLG and POS, generating DNA fragments of 530/55 and 585bp, respectively. By subsequent sequence analysis of the 23S domain I rRNA gene only strain FAS was identical to reference strain A22 of C. abortus. Strains FAG and VPG presented an identical nucleotide deviation at position 593 of signature sequences. Strains LLG and POS presented three identical nucleotide deviations at positions 156, 186 and 307. Variation within the domain I signature sequences for the examined abortion strains was < or =0.69%. In conclusion, substantial genetic and biological diversity among strains of C. abortus was demonstrated, suggesting that subspecies variation status for certain strains may be applicable. Our findings suggest that differentiation may be possible at a subspecies level by RFLP analysis.  相似文献

Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to amplify the spacer regions between the 16S and 23S genes of rRNA genetic loci of Salmonella serovars for their rapid identification. These genetic loci revealed a significant level of polymorphism in length across the species/serovar lines. When the 16S-23S spacer region amplification products were subjected to agarose electrophoresis, the patterns observed could be used to distinguish all the serovars of Salmonella tested. Unique elements obtained in amplification products were mostly clustered at serovar level, although certain genus-specific patterns were also observed. On the basis of the results obtained, the amplification of 16S-23S ribosomal spacer region could suitably be used in a PCR-based identification method for Salmonella serovars.  相似文献

Two groups of Mycoplasma gallisepticum (MG) isolates (n = 24) from Jordan were analyzed by molecular methods and compared with other Middle Eastern isolates, related international isolates, and reference strains. The first group (n = 19) was isolated from July 2004 to January 2005 (isolation period A), and the newer group (n = 5) from June 2007 to April 2008 (isolation period B). The groups of isolates are from chicken flocks from northern Jordan, but are not from the same farms. None of the flocks were vaccinated for MG. Random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis, targeted sequencing of the partial MG cytadhesin 2 (mgc2), and the MG 16S-23S rRNA intergenic spacer region (IGSR) divided the Jordanian isolates into two groups. All of the 19 isolates from time period A, in addition to two isolates from time period B, were indistinguishable from the F strain. Three of five isolates from time period B were characterized as wild types and were indistinguishable from each other. The wild-type field strain was readily distinguished from the F strain. It was 91% and 96.4% similar to the F strain based on Clustal-W alignments of sequences of mgc2 and IGSR, respectively. Sequence similarity of mgc2 gene of the Jordan wild-type strain to isolates from Israel and Egypt ranged from 96.5% to 100%, whereas for IGSR it was 99.4%-100%. We theorize that the F-strain live MG vaccine, commonly used in Jordan prior to 2007, was transmitted to nonvaccinated poultry in the region and was a predominant genotype during time period A.  相似文献

A total of 151 strains of Mycoplasma hyorhinis isolated from porcine lung lesions (weaned pigs, n=71, and finishers, n=80) were investigated for their in vitro susceptibility to 10 antimicrobial agents. Thirty-one strains (28 from weaned pigs and 3 from finishers) showed resistance to 16-membered macrolide antibiotics and lincomycin. The prevalence of the 16-membered macrolide-resistant M. hyorhinis strain in weaned pigs from Japanese herds has approximately quadrupled in the past 10 years. Several of the 31 strains were examined for mutations in the 23S ribosomal RNA (rRNA). All field strains tested showed a transition of A to G at position 2059 of 23S rRNA-rendered Escherichia coli. On the other hand, individual tylosin- and lincomycin-resistant mutants of M. hyorhinis were selected in vitro from the susceptible type strain BTS7 by 3 to 9 serial passages in subinhibitory concentrations of each antibiotic. The 23S rRNA sequences of both tylosin and lincomycin-resistant mutants were compared with that of the radical BTS7 strain. The BTS7 mutant strain selected by tylosin showed the same transition as the field-isolated strains of A2059G. However, the transition selected in lincomycin showed mutations in domains II and V of 23S rRNA, G2597U, C2611U in domain V, and the addition of an adenine at the pentameric adenine loop in domain II. The strain selected by lincomycin showed an additional point mutation of A2062G selected by tylosin.  相似文献

The present study was designed to characterize phenotypically and genotypically nine Arcanobacterium abortisuis strains collected from specimen of pigs in a period of nine years. All nine A. abortisuis strains and A. abortisuis reference strain DSM 19515 displayed a synergistic hemolytic reaction with Staphylococcus aureus β-hemolysin, Rhodococcus equi, and Arcanobacterium haemolyticum indicator strains and showed the typical biochemical properties of this species. The species identity could be confirmed by identification and sequencing of the 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region (ISR), which appeared to be a useful target for genotypic characterization of this bacterial species. The A. abortisuis strains of the present study were isolated from specimen of pigs together with various other bacterial species indicating that the pathogenic importance of this newly described species remains to be elucidated.  相似文献
