Abstract

IS6110 DNA fingerprinting was used to characterize an outbreak of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis in 21 individuals (17 males and 4 females) living in or roaming among four distantly separated areas in the Czech Republic. The restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis separated the collected Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains into group A, including 14 patients with six IS6110 copies, and group B, with 7 patients displaying highly similar RFLP patterns but with two additional IS6110 bands. A switch from pattern A to pattern B was observed in one patient, and the subsequent detection of subclone B in seven more individuals has been explained by the instability of DNA genotypes caused by transposition of IS6110 elements.
