Title: Flying squirrel-associated Rickettsia prowazekii (epidemic typhus rickettsiae) characterized by a specific DNA fragment produced by restriction endonuclease digestion. Author: Regnery RL, Fu ZY, Spruill CL. Journal: J Clin Microbiol; 1986 Jan; 23(1):189-91. PubMed ID: 3009528. Abstract: The DNA from flying squirrel-associated Rickettsia prowazekii was characterized by using a specific DNA fragment produced by digestion with the enzyme BamHI. The DNA fragment was cloned into a plasmid vector and used to readily distinguish between available human- and flying squirrel-associated R. prowazekii DNAs derived from crude cytoplasmic extracts.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
