We designed primers and cycling probes to detect the tandem repeat (TR) of cyp51A promoter in Aspergillus fumigatus. A control-probe was designed to anneal to the outside of the TR region, whereas a TR-probe was designed to anneal to the inside of the TR region. For amplification and probe-hydrolysis detection, the CycleavePCR system was used. Although the difference between Ct values of the wild-type genome for the control-probe and the TR-probe was around -0.1, the difference between Ct values of TR-harboring strains was around 0.7. These data indicate that this is a simple method to detect TR in azole-resistant A. fumigatus.
我们设计了引物和循环探针来检测烟曲霉中cyp51A启动子的串联重复序列(TR)。设计了一个对照探针,使其退火到TR区域之外,而设计了一个TR探针,使其退火到TR区域之内。为了进行扩增和探针水解检测,使用了CycleavePCR系统。虽然对照探针和TR探针的野生型基因组Ct值之差约为-0.1,但携带TR的菌株的Ct值之差约为0.7。这些数据表明,这是一种检测耐唑类烟曲霉中TR的简单方法。
