Abstract:
Objective To study the genotyping distribution of the Yersinia pestis(Y.pestis)strains by characterizing the diversity of the insertion sequence IS100 within the Y.pestis genome.Methods Derived fromthe known sequence of oriental strain CO92,5 pairs of locus-specific primers originating from both sides of the adjacent region of IS100 copies were designed,and two other complementary primers inside the IS100 sequence were designed to correspond with the outer primers.Then,91 Y.pestis strains and l pseudotubebculosis strain were tested by the specific PCR method using the primers described above and the PCR products were conformed by the sequence analysis,then further analysis WaS performed after the IS100 status was marked on the map of the plague focus type of china.Results The 91 Y.pestis strains had different IS100 status in their genome on tested loci.some possessed IS100 insertion,some didn't,and others changed their genome constitution.The IS100 possession on the 5 loci also suggested a distribution of regionality.Conclusion The analysis of some IS100 insertion element loci reveals that the IS100 genotyping distribution is consistent with the plague focus of type of China.And IS100genotyping pattern of the Y.pestis stains well reflects its genome constitution and the high flowability in its natural evolution.
