Abstract:PCR was performed with Taylorella asinigenitalis UCD-1(T) using two primer pairs constructed in silico for the amplification of the intervening sequences (IVSs) in the first quarter and central regions of the 23S rRNA gene. Following TA cloning and sequencing, the strain was identified to carry heterogeneous and multiple IVSs. Two similar tandem repeat units of 25 and 24 base pairs (bp) with unknown function(s) were identified within the two IVSs in the central region. Secondary structure models of IVSs, conta… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
