Journal ArticleDOI
Complete Genome Sequence of Enterohemorrhagic Eschelichia coli O157:H7 and Genomic Comparison with a Laboratory Strain K-12
Tetsuya Hayashi,Kozo Makino,Makoto Ohnishi,Ken Kurokawa,Kazuo Ishii,Katsushi Yokoyama,Chang Gyun Han,Eiichi Ohtsubo,Keisuke Nakayama,Takahiro Murata,Masashi Tanaka,Toru Tobe,Tetsuya Iida,Hideto Takami,Takeshi Honda,Chihiro Sasakawa,Naotake Ogasawara,Teruo Yasunaga,Satoru Kuhara,Tadayoshi Shiba,Masahira Hattori,Hideo Shinagawa +21 more
TL;DR: The complete chromosome sequence of an O157:H7 strain isolated from the Sakai outbreak is reported, and the results of genomic comparison with a benign laboratory strain, K-12 MG1655, are identified, which may represent the fundamental backbone of the E. coli chromosome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Highly accurate genome sequences of Escherichia coli K‐12 strains MG1655 and W3110
Koji Hayashi,Naoki Moro-oka,Yoshihiro Yamamoto,Katsutoshi Fujita,Katsumi Isono,Sunju Choi,Eiichi Ohtsubo,Tomoya Baba,Tomoya Baba,Barry L. Wanner,Hirotada Mori,Hirotada Mori,Takashi Horiuchi +12 more
TL;DR: Direct DNA sequencing of PCR products for the 251 regions with short indel and base disparities revealed that only eight sites are true differences, and errors in the original MG1655 sequence were mostly within portions sequenced with out‐dated technology based on radioactive chemistry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nucleotide sequence of an insertion element, IS1
Hisako Ohtsubo,Eiichi Ohtsubo +1 more
TL;DR: The hypothesis that RNA polymerase could play an important role in such recombination phenomena is discussed based on the nucleotide sequences surrounding the recombinational hot spots.
Journal ArticleDOI
Polyphyletic Origin of Cultivated Rice: Based on the Interspersion Pattern of SINEs
Chaoyang Cheng,Reiko Motohashi,Suguru Tsuchimoto,Yoshimichi Fukuta,Hisako Ohtsubo,Eiichi Ohtsubo +5 more
TL;DR: To determine the origin of cultivated rice, subfamily members of the rice retroposon p-SINE1, which show insertion polymorphism in the O. sativa -O.
Book ChapterDOI
Bacterial Insertion Sequences
Eiichi Ohtsubo,Yasuhiko Sekine +1 more
TL;DR: Insertion sequences (ISs) are bacterial mobile DNA elements which cause various kinds of genome rearrangements, such as deletions, inversions, duplications, and replicon fusions, by their ability to transpose.
