doi:10.3969/j.issn.1673-8640.2015.11.018

Abstract

Abstract: Objective

To investigate the feasibility of high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis to detect gyrA gene mutation in Escherichia coli.

Methods

A total of 70 isolates of Escherichia coli were collected, and gyrA gene was amplified with conventional polymerase chain reaction(PCR). Gene mutation was detected by sequence analysis. Specific primer was designed. The gyrA gene was amplified by fluorescence quantitation PCR. The mutation of gyrA gene was detected by amplifying product HRM curve and melting temperature (Tm) analysis. The result was compared with that of gene sequence analysis.

Results

gyrA gene mutation sequence analysis showed that 43 of 70 isolates occurred gyrA gene mutation. In these mutations, 5 types were found. HRM analysis can accurately distinguish between wild and mutant isolates. The detection accuracy was 98.6% (69/70).The 42 of 43 mutant isolates were correctly detected, and different type gene mutations can be correctly typed. Tm analysis also showed the difference of wild and mutant isolates.

Conclusions

HRM analysis is accurate, simple, rapid, cheap and high-throughput, and it and would be a novel choice in analyzing drug resistance mechanism of Escherichia coli.
