La reacción en cadena de la polimerasa (PCR) fue empleada para amplificar un fragmento de 272-pb presente en el genoma del Trypanosoma cruzi, pero no detectado en el genoma del Trypanosoma rangeli. Para la amplificación por PCR se emplearon los oligonucleótidos TC4-1 y TC4-2 de 25-pb cada uno. Con el ...
chromosomal DNA from a Paraguayan Trypanosoma cruzi isolate was extracted and sonicated. The fragments were cloned and some clones were size-selectd and sequenced. Two primer pairs TC22 and TC4 were synthesized and applied to other Paraguayan T. cruzi isolates and two Leishmania mexicana amazoniensis str...
The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was usedto evaluate the course of treatment of an acutely infected patient with Trypanosoma cruzi. The reactions were performed using a primer pair (TCZ1 and TCZ2) which prime the amplification of a highly repetive 195-bp T. cruzi genomic DNA. Treatment with benzonidaz...
A 188-bp DNA fragment obtained by PCR amplification using an oligonucleotide primer pair which anneal to the ends of a highly repetitive 155-bp Trypanosoma cruzi nuclear DNA was cloned in pUC18 and its sequences determined...
