DNA Restriction Endonuclease Analysis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mycobacterium bovis BCG

摘要: Summary: DNA preparations from two reference (H37Ra and H37Rv) wild strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis one re-isolated strain bovis BCG were analysed using 17 restriction endonucleases. The enzyme BstEII revealed the greatest differences between strains. Electrophoretic patterns M. differed each other at relatively few positions. At highest resolution attained, remained indistinguishable other. pattern was substantially different from, but had many bands in common with, patterns.
