Mapping polymorphisms in 16S ribosomal RNA
In the class that I'm teaching, we found that several PCR products, amplified from the 16S ribosomal RNA genes from bacterial isolates, contain a mixed base in one or more positions. We picked samples where the mixed bases were located in high quality regions of the sequence (Q >40), and determined that the mixed bases mostly likely come from different...Posted on April 17, 2008 8:00 AM • 2 Comments •
