摘要
In the present study three different genetic markers were used in an RFLP study to differentiate Mycobacterium bovis (M. bovis) isolated in Argentina. The markers were: the insertion sequence IS6110, the direct repeat (DR) sequence flanking IS6110, and a polymorphic GC-rich repetitive sequence (PGRS), called pMBA2. Two restriction enzymes were used, PvuII for IS6110 and DR (DR/PvuII) and AluI for DR (DR/AluI) and pMBA2. DNA from 85 of M. bovis isolates was digested with PvuII and hybridized with IS6110 and DR. IS6110 was not useful to differentiate M. bovis because most of the isolates contain a single monomorphic copy. The use of DR allowed a limited degree of differentiation. DNA from 44 of these isolates was also digested with AluI and hybridized with DR and pMBA2. In this condition these probes differentiated the isolates in many different RFLP types. By combining the patterns generated with DR/AluI and pMBA2 it was possible to increase the differentiation up to obtain 30 different RFLP types and 54% of the isolates were differentiated because they showed a unique pattern. Six isolates of M. bovis involved in two different outbreaks of bovine tuberculosis were correctly identified. Thus, DR and pMBA2 could be, at the moment, the probes of choice for comparisons of M. bovis isolates in different regions and for epidemiological surveillance of bovine tuberculosis.
