Design and Experimental Application of a Novel Non-Degenerate Universal Primer Set that Amplifies Prokaryotic 16S rRNA Genes with a Low Possibility to Amplify Eukaryotic rRNA Genes

Abstract: The deep sequencing of 16S rRNA genes amplified by universal primers has revolutionized our understanding of microbial communities by allowing the characterization of the diversity of the uncultured majority. However, some universal primers also amplify eukaryotic rRNA genes, leading to a decrease in the efficiency of sequencing of prokaryotic 16S rRNA genes with possible mischaracterization of the diversity in the microbial community. In this study, we compared 16S rRNA gene sequences from genome-sequenced st… Show more

“…The bacterial 16S rRNA gene was amplified using the primers 342F (5′-CTACGGGGGGCAGCAG-3′) and 806R (5′-GGACTACCGGGGTATCT-3′)48. The PCR reactions were performed in a 20 μL reaction mixture containing 4 μL of 5X FastPfu Buffer, 2 μL of 2.5 mM dNTPs, 0.8 μL of each primer (5 μM), 0.4 μL of FastPfu Polymerase, and 10 ng of template DNA.…”

“…Barcoded pyrosequencing and analysis Fusion primers 341F-806R (Mori et al, 2013) and LR3-LR0R (Liu et al, 2012) were used to amplify multiplexed bar-coded 16S rRNA and large subunit rRNA gene sequences to profile bacterial and fungal communities, respectively. PCR products were purified, pooled and sequenced on a 454 GS FLX Titanium sequencer (Roche 454 Life Sciences, Branford, CT, USA).…”

“…Primer candidates, listed in Supplementary Table 2, are tested to satisfy 2 criteria: a) no presence of signal in the negative control and b) preservation of same limits of detection (LoDs), as previously reported by equivalent assays (Clifford et al, 2012;Liu et al, 2012;Nadkarni et al, 2002). As a result, a new reverse primer was discovered, completely eliminating "previously reported contamination-like priming" in the absence of unintended targets (Clifford et al, 2012;Huys et al, 2008;Liu et al, 2012;Mori et al, 2014;Nadkarni et al, 2002). The novel hybridization probe was successfully added for the first time, thus allowing assay compatibility with hybridization-based diagnostic qPCR chemistry (TaqMan like).…”
