A rapid and simple PCR-based assay for detection of the group 2 capsule synthesis gene kpsM of Escherichia coli was designed and validated. When combined with the published group 2 primers (kpsIIf, 5'-GCGCATTTGCTGATACTGTTG-3'; kpsIIr, 5'-CATCCAGACGATAAGCATGAGCA-3'), the new primers (the kpsIIf primer and a new reverse primer K2r, 5'-AGGTAGTTCAGACTCACACCT-3') allowed specific identification by exclusion of the heretofore elusive K2 kpsM variant. The primers yielded the predicted amplicon when multiplexed with other primers and used under varied assay conditions, including a range of concentrations of individual reaction mixture ingredients and of annealing temperatures (from 54 to 64 degrees C).
设计并验证了一种基于聚合酶链反应(PCR)的快速简便检测方法,用于检测大肠杆菌2型荚膜合成基因kpsM。当与已发表的2型引物(kpsIIf,5'-GCGCATTTGCTGATACTGTTG-3';kpsIIr,5'-CATCCAGACGATAAGCATGAGCA-3')结合使用时,新引物(kpsIIf引物和新的反向引物K2r,5'-AGGTAGTTCAGACTCACACCT-3')通过排除迄今难以捉摸的K2 kpsM变体实现特异性鉴定。当与其他引物进行多重扩增并在不同的检测条件下使用时,包括各种浓度的单个反应混合物成分和退火温度(54至64摄氏度),这些引物产生了预期的扩增产物。
