Utilization of the internal transcribed spacer regions as molecular targets to detect and identify human fungal pathogens

1 Jan 2002

Abstract excerpt

Advances in molecular technology show great potential for the rapid detection and identification of fungi for medical, scientific and commercial purposes. Numerous targets within the fungal genome have been evaluated, with much of the current work using sequence areas within the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) gene complex. This section of the genome includes the 18S, 5.8S and 28S genes which code for ribosomal RNA (rRNA)...
