Direct automated sequencing of 16S rDNA amplified by polymerase chain reaction from bacterial cultures without DNA purification.

Lett Appl Microbiol 15(5):210-3 (1992) PMID 1280147

The 16S rRNA gene from various bacterial cultures was amplified by the polymerase chain reaction without DNA purification, and sequenced directly by using a laser fluorescent DNA sequencer and Tth polymerase with a cycle sequencing protocol. The described procedures provide almost complete 16S rDNA sequence data within a couple of days and facilitate systematic studies.

    Emerg Infect Dis 16(12):1949-51 (2010) PMID 21122228

    Four Asian elephants were confirmed to be infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis by bacterial culture, other diagnostic procedures, and sequencing of 16S-23S rDNA internal transcribed spacer region, 16S rRNA, and gyrase B gene sequences. Genotyping showed that the infectious agents originated from...

    The Antarctic is a pristine environment that contributes to the maintenance of the global climate equilibrium. The harsh conditions of this habitat are fundamental to selecting those organisms able to survive in such an extreme habitat and able to support the relatively simple ecosystems. The DNA of...
