EVALUATION OF 7SL RNA GENE SEQUENCES FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF LEISHMANIA SPP.
1 Apr 2005
Abstract excerpt
We evaluated the use of 7SL RNA gene sequences for the identification of Leishmania spp. A fragment (approximately 137 basepairs) of the 7SL RNA gene from 13 reference strains and 18 clinical isolates of 11 different Leishmania species was amplified and sequenced using conserved primers. Reference strains from each Leishmania spp. complex showed unique sequences. The nucleotide sequences were compared pairwise...
