| Description |
We have cloned, sequenced and analysed all the five classes of the intergenic (16S-23S rRNA) spacer region
(ISR) associated with the eight rrn operons (rrna-rrnh) of Vibrio cholerae serogroup O1 El Tor strains isolated
before, during and after the O139 outbreak. ISR classes ‘a’ and ‘g’ were found to be invariant, ISR-B (ISRb and
ISRe) exhibited very little variation, whereas ISR-C (ISRc, ISRd, and ISRf) and ISRh showed the maximum
variation. Phylogenetic analysis conducted with all three ISR classes (ISR-B, ISR-C and ISRh) showed that the
pre-O139 serogroup and post-O139 serogroup O1 El Tor strains arose out of two independent clones, which was
congruent with the observation made by earlier workers suggesting that analyses of ISR-C and ISR-h, instead of
all five ISR classes, could be successfully used to study phylogeny in this organism.
