Abstract:
Objective To investigate the mycologic features and variation in gene sequence of a hot-resistant Trichophyton rubrum which caused granulomatous skin lesion.Methods The isolate was identified by routine and polymerase chain reaction(PCR)technique.Ribosomal conserved sequence and trs-1(tandem repetitive subelement)sequence in the ribosomal non-transcribed spacer(NTS)were determined.Results The hot-resistant isolate was identified as T.rubrum by routine and PCR technique.The trs-1sequence variation in rDNA NTS was found in the strain.Conclusion The trs-1sequence variation suggests that this strain be one of isotypic variants of T.rubrum,which has much higher pathogenicity to cause granulomatous skin lesion,or sequence variation of the strain may be the result of adapting itself to environmental change(37℃),which needs further studies.
