Description:
DNA extraction and PCR amplification Microbial community genomic DNA extraction from fecal samples will be done using extraction kit in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions. The DNA extract will be checked on a 1% agarose gel, and the DNA concentration and purity will be determined using the NanoDrop 2000 UV-vis spectrophotometer.
The hyper-variable region V3-V4 of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene will be amplified with the primer pair 338F (ACTCCTACGGGAGGCAGCAG) and 806R (GGACTACHVGGGTATCTAAT) on a PCR thermocycler. PCR amplification of the 16S rRNA gene will performed as follows:
Initial denaturation at 95 ℃ for 3 min. 27 cycles of denaturing at 95 ℃ for 30 s, annealing at 55 ℃ for 30 s, and extension at 72 ℃ for 45 s.
Final extension step at 72 ℃ for 10 min and incubation at 10 ℃. The PCR product will then be used to quantify different bacterial species in stool samples of patients and controls using real time PCR.
