Abstract:
AIM: To amplify and analyze the differential DNA fragment between pathogenic leptospira serovar lai and nonpathagenic leptospira serovar patoc I. METHODS: The previously subtractive DNA fragment only existing in leptospira serovar Lai was amplified by cassette ligation and semi-nested PCR.The obtained gene was sequenced and searched homologically. In addition, the deduced amino acid was analyzed and the secondary stracture of protein was predicted. RESULTS: The 580 bp DNA fragment, which deposited in GenBank (AF495587), was cloned, and four overlapping open reading frames (ORF) was contained. The high homology with conserved hypothetical protein streptococcus pyogenes was found. CONCLUSION: This study lays foundation for deeply exploring biological actions of new gene and pathogenic mechanism of leptospira serovar lai.
