Popis: | The flagellin genes of four Burkholderia pseudomallei and two Burkholderia cepacia clinical isolates were studied by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based isolation method using the same pair of primers. The PCR-amplification products of the isolates showed a single band of about 1·1 kb, which is similar to a type II B. cepacia flagellin reported previously. In order to distinguish these two species based on the flagellin PCR-amplified products, Pst I and Xho I restriction endonuclease analysis was performed. The results suggest that there is sufficient diversity within the flagellin sequences of the closely related Burkholderia species, B. pseudomallei and B. cepacia , to enable flagellin-type identification on the basis of the pattern of restriction fragments. In addition, the flagellin gene should be of considerable use as a genetic marker for clinical identification of these organisms. |
