Using 16S rRNA analysis and other genetic techniques, the team extracted DNA from the cheek swabs to look for clues. Surprisingly, they found that one bacterial species, Streptococcus mitis ...

We also cultured hundreds of bacteria from this site. 570 isolates were grown up in broth, their DNA extracted and the V1-V9 region of the 16S rRNA gene amplified using the Shoreline Biome DNA V1-V9 ...

Indeed, archaea and bacteria appear very similar biologically ... and not just in universal genes like the 16S rRNA. How do the domains of life differ? Scientists identified two key distinctions ...

Pathogenic bacteria and other microbes cause the condition ... Using high-throughput 16s rRNA sequencing, Andrew Sommer and Julia Kettner, both graduate students in Coon's lab, analyzed internal ...

The main types of rRNA include: Small Subunit rRNA: In prokaryotes, the small subunit contains the 16S rRNA, while in eukaryotes, it contains the 18S rRNA. These rRNAs are involved in mRNA binding and ...

to amplify a common shared gene in bacteria, 16S rRNA. Twenty-nine percent of bladder biopsies of 22 patients with IC had 16S rRNA, versus none of the 16 controls. Cloning and sequencing of gene ...

By testing pilot-scale STRBs under varying sludge loading rates, the research employed advanced 16S rRNA sequencing to ... loads were linked to increased bacterial diversity but lower community ...
