Abstract:
Objective To understand the distribution,variation and prevalence of virulence-related gene of the V.cholerae at the molecular level.Methods PCR technique was applied to detect ctxAB,and zot gene of CTX? genetic element,cri gene of TLC cluster of the 176 strains of V.cholerae isolated from 1964 to 2008.Results One hundred and thirty-one strains of V.cholerae carry ctxAB and zot of CTX? genetic element in 176 strains,the positive rates were 72.72%(128/176 strain) and 73.30%(129/176 strain) respectively.69.00%(69/100 strain) of V.cholerae O1 strains isolated from 1964 to 1996 carried cri gene,however the rate was only 1.33%(1/75) in the strains isolated from 1998 to 2008.ctxAB,zot and cri in V.cholerae O139 were all positive.Conclusion Detection of virulence-related genes can reflect the molecular characteristics of strains,and it is important to the molecular epidemiology of V.cholerae research.
