Abstract
Complete sequences of omp1 gene encoding chlamydial main outer membrane protein were analyzed in 76 clinical strains of C. trachomatis. Thirty-four serovar-specific single-nucleotide polymorphisms were identified, 20 of them meet two criteria: unique position of the nucleotide and unique nucleotide substitution. Evaluation of serovar-specific single-nucleotide polymorphisms of omp1 gene can appreciably simplify and accelerate genetic diagnosis of C. trachomatis serovars.Entities:
