numerical analysis of electrophoretic protein patterns of bacteroides ureolyticus clinical isolates.	a total of 37 bacteroides ureolyticus clinical isolates (mainly from the united kingdom) comprising 18 nongonococcal urethritis-associated strains and 19 other strains, including the type strain (nctc 10941t) and strains from abscesses, ulcers, and various other soft tissue lesions, and five reference strains of other bacteroides, fusobacterium, megamonas, and sebaldella species were characterized by one-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of cellular proteins. ...	1987	3571475
16s-23s rdna internal transcribed spacer sequences for analysis of the phylogenetic relationships among species of the genus fusobacterium.	the 16s-23s rdna internal transcribed spacer (its) regions of all currently defined fusobacterium species and related taxa such as leptotrichia buccalis, sebaldella termitidis and streptobacillus moniliformans, were analysed to examine inter- and intraspecies as well as subspecies relationships. for the its-amplification, a new eubacterial universal primer pair was designed and used. the majority of the fusobacterium strains, along with l. buccalis showed one major, and two to three weaker, dist ...	2002	11931161
pcr for the detection of streptobacillus moniliformis.	streptobacillus moniliformis is a gram-negative bacterium found in various laboratory animal species and is the cause of rat bite fever and haverhill fever in man. in order to evaluate a polymerase chain reaction (pcr) for the detection of this zoonotic bacterium in animal tissues a set of primers was designed based on the dna base sequence of part of the 16s rrna gene from 11 s. moniliformis strains. the pcr detected as few as 2-6 copies of s. moniliformis dna. a 296 bp dna fragment was amplifi ...	2002	11943086
complete genome sequence of sebaldella termitidis type strain (nctc 11300).	sebaldella termitidis (sebald 1962) collins and shah 1986, is the only species in the genus sebaldella within the fusobacterial family 'leptotrichiaceae'. the sole and type strain of the species was first isolated about 50 years ago from intestinal content of mediterranean termites. the species is of interest for its very isolated phylogenetic position within the phylum fusobacteria in the tree of life, with no other species sharing more than 90% 16s rrna sequence similarity. the 4,486,650 bp lo ...	2010	21304705
