An arbitrarily-primed polymerase chain reaction (AP-PCR) was developed using a primer pair, Mlip1 and Mlip4, for members of the Mycoplasma mycoides cluster, a group containing important pathogens of small and large ruminants. Parameters that influence the reproducibility of this assay were optimized: magnesium, primer and template concentrations, and pH. AP-PCR fingerprinting, carried out on a number of strains of each of the six species or subspecies belonging to the mycoides cluster, allowed the typing of strains within each group. The AP-PCR assay showed that the cluster can be divided into two groups: (i) high and (ii) no genomic polymorphism variation. In addition, specific polymorphic bands for members of species or subspecies included in this cluster were amplified by this AP-PCR method, thus allowing their identification.

D016133 Polymerase Chain Reaction In vitro method for producing large amounts of specific DNA or RNA fragments of defined length and sequence from small amounts of short oligonucleotide flanking sequences (primers). The essential steps include thermal denaturation of the double-stranded target molecules, annealing of the primers to their complementary sequences, and extension of the annealed primers by enzymatic synthesis with DNA polymerase. The reaction is efficient, specific, and extremely sensitive. Uses for the reaction include disease diagnosis, detection of difficult-to-isolate pathogens, mutation analysis, genetic testing, DNA sequencing, and analyzing evolutionary relationships.
