[Prevalence of IS285 and IS100 in Yersinia pestis and Yersinia pseudotuberculosis genomes]. 1997

A G Bobrov, and A A Filippov

Cell DNAs of various species of Enterobacteriaceae were hybridized with the probes based on IS285 and IS100, mobile genetic elements of Yersinia pestis. These IS elements are found only in the genomes of all tested Y. pestis strains and a number of strains of a related bacterium Y. pseudotuberculosis. Phylogenetic relations between the tested strains and correlation of fingerprints with the geographical origin of the strains were revealed by analysis of the hybridization profiles of Y. pestis and Y. pseudotuberculosis chromosomal DNAs with IS probes. Comparison of the chromosomal IS100 profiles of Y. pestis wild strain and its nonpigmented mutant helped us determine the minimal extension of the genetic rearrangement and detect at least three copies of the IS element in the mutant region.

D004251	DNA Transposable Elements	Discrete segments of DNA which can excise and reintegrate to another site in the genome. Most are inactive, i.e., have not been found to exist outside the integrated state. DNA transposable elements include bacterial IS (insertion sequence) elements, Tn elements, the maize controlling elements Ac and Ds, Drosophila P, gypsy, and pogo elements, the human Tigger elements and the Tc and mariner elements which are found throughout the animal kingdom.

D004269	DNA, Bacterial	Deoxyribonucleic acid that makes up the genetic material of bacteria.	Bacterial DNA
D015010	Yersinia pestis	The etiologic agent of PLAGUE in man, rats, ground squirrels, and other rodents.	Bacillus pestis,Bacterium pestis,Pasteurella pestis,Pestisella pestis,Yersinia pseudotuberculosis subsp. pestis
D015011	Yersinia pseudotuberculosis	A human and animal pathogen causing mesenteric lymphadenitis, diarrhea, and bacteremia.
D016172	DNA Fingerprinting	A technique for identifying individuals of a species that is based on the uniqueness of their DNA sequence. Uniqueness is determined by identifying which combination of allelic variations occur in the individual at a statistically relevant number of different loci. In forensic studies, RESTRICTION FRAGMENT LENGTH POLYMORPHISM of multiple, highly polymorphic VNTR LOCI or MICROSATELLITE REPEAT loci are analyzed. The number of loci used for the profile depends on the ALLELE FREQUENCY in the population.
