PCR-based rapid identification of M. tuberculosis Beijing strains. Lanes show M. tuberculosis genotyping with the MIRU 26 Beijing isolates and non-Beijing isolates as follows. MIRU 26 Beijing isolates: copy number 7, lanes 4 and 7, Kremer 20 and 44, respectively, and lane 16, Libya LS35. Non-Beijing isolates: copy no. 6, lane 6, Kremer 98; copy no. 5, lanes 1, 2, 3, and 9, Kremer 120, 121, 12, and 95, respectively, and lanes 11 and 14, LS2 and LS7, respectively; copy no. 4, lanes 5 and 15, Kremer 82 and LS14, respectively; copy no. 3, lanes 10 and 12, Kremer 41 and 118, respectively; and copy no. 2, lanes 8 and 13, Kremer 97 and 15, respectively. Lane M, 100-bp marker (MBI Fermentas). The table on the right gives the predicted size of the MIRU 26 PCR product corresponding to the number of alleles. MIRU locus 26 copy numbers are given as per the conventions described in reference 13.
