Description The intron-encoded enzyme I-CeuI provides an excellent tool for rapidly examining the organization of genomes of related species of bacteria. nbrio cholerue strains belonging to serovars 0 1 and 0139 have 9 I-CeuI sites in their genomes, and K cholerue strains belonging to serovars non-01 and non-0139 have 10 I-CeuI sites in their genomes. This information can be used as a criterion to differentiate 0 1 strains from non-01 and non-0139 strains. To our knowledge, intraspecies variation in the number of rrn operons has not been reported in any other organism. Our data revealed extensive restriction fragment length polymorphism based on a comparison of the I-CeuI digestion profiles of strains belonging to different serovars and biovars. From the analysis of partial digestion products, I-CeuI macrorestriction maps of several classical, El Tor, and 0139 strains were constructed. While the linkage maps are conserved within biovars, linkage maps vary substantially between biovars.
