Disease relevance of gyrB

Nucleotide sequence of the gyrB gene of Pseudomonas putida [1].
Degenerate PCR primers, UP-1 and UP-2r, for the amplification of DNA gyrase subunit B genes (gyrB) were designed by using consensus amino acid sequences of gyrases from Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas putida, and Bacillus subtilis [2].

High impact information on gyrB

Population dynamics of phenol-degrading bacteria in activated sludge determined by gyrB-targeted quantitative PCR [3].
The base substitution frequency of gyrB between the strains of P. putida was much higher than that of the 16S rRNA gene [2].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of gyrB

With a specific set of PCR primers, it was possible to amplify gyrB fragments selectively from P. putida or its subgroups [2].
