Russian “Successful” Clone B0/W148 of Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing Genotype: a Multiplex PCR Assay for Rapid Detection and Global Screening

Abstract: dWe describe a multiplex PCR assay to detect the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Beijing genotype variant B0/W148, which is considered a "successful" clone of M. tuberculosis, widespread in Russia. Specificity and sensitivity of the assay were 100% based on the analysis of a collection of 516 M. tuberculosis isolates of different genotypes and origins. This assay may be used for accurate and simple detection and surveillance of this clinically and epidemiologically important variant of M. tuberculosis.

“…Typically, all Beijing-B0/W148 isolates were drug-resistant (88.2 % were MDR), which agrees with the data obtained earlier [5,14]. This proves the "success" of the Beijing-B0/ W148 sublineage.…”

“…tuberculosis population can be divided into a number of major lineages; each lineage is geographically associated [2] and carries certain phylogenetic markers that shape the phenotype of the strain [3]. Members of the Beijing family are the most prevalent lineage in Russia; they are highly transmissible ОРИГИНАЛЬНОЕ ИССЛЕДОВАНИЕ ЭВОЛЮЦИЯ ИНФЕКЦИЙ [5].…”

“…Nevertheless, knowledge of the specific locations of these insertion sequences has allowed the design of rapid techniques to identify specific genotypes of the W Beijing strain (8)(9)(10). Another objective of this study was to develop a rapid diagnostic method based on a specific point of insertion of IS6110 to identify M. tuberculosis Zaragoza isolates.…”

“…In some cases, when a specific location is detected, it has been used as a target to design a multiplex PCR method that allows rapid strain identification. For example, the IS6110 located within the designated region NTF-1 (Rv3128c to Rv3129), Rv2180c, and Rv2664 to Rv2665 allowed identification of the Wmultidrug-resistant Beijing strain, the GC1237 Beijing strain, and clone B0/W148 Beijing, respectively, to better control the transmission of specific epidemic strains (8)(9)(10).…”

“…Принадлежность к генотипу Beijing определяли по наличию специфической вставки элемента IS6110 в локусе dnaA-dnaN хромосомы методом ПЦР в формате реаль-ного времени [19]. Кластер B0/W148 генотипа Beijing идентифицировали по наличию специ-фической вставки IS6110 в межгенном участ-ке Rv2664-Rv2665 с помощью мультиплексной ПЦР [16]. Генотипирование штаммов других генетических групп (non-Beijing) осуществляли методом сполиготипирования [10].…”
