The type III arginine catabolic mobile element (ACME) was detected in three oral isolates recovered from separate patients (one healthy, one healthy with dental implants, and one with periodontal disease) based on ACME--operon- and ACME--operon-directed PCR. These isolates were subjected to whole-genome sequencing to characterize the precise structural organization of ACME III for the first time, which also revealed that all three isolates were the same sequence type, ST329.
基于 ACME-操纵子和 ACME-操纵子定向 PCR,从三位不同患者(一位健康,一位健康并植有牙,一位患有牙周病)的口腔分离株中检测到 III 型精氨酸降解移动元件(ACME)。为首次对 ACME III 的精确结构组织进行特征描述,这些分离株进行了全基因组测序,同时也揭示了这三种分离株均为同一序列型,ST329。
