In recent years, the sequence of the 16S rRNA gene has been used to detect and identify bacterial infection in clinical practice (1), but many of the PCR methods in use are not able to further ...

In the microscopic world of bacteria, gene transfer is a powerful mechanism that can alter cellular function, drive antibiotic resistance and even shape entire ecosystems.

Additionally, as targeted sequencing of 16S rRNA is the gold ... that attached a unique barcode to 16S rRNA upon gene ...

These variations have been exploited for phylogenetic analyses and the identification of microorganisms in environmental samples through techniques like 16S rRNA sequencing. Given the essential role ...

Their gut microbiota profiles were analyzed from stool samples using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Researchers used four techniques to identify potential IBD biomarkers in the samples: Differential ...
