What species are detected by the Pan Bacteria 1 and Pan Bacteria 3 Assays?
Pan Bacteria 1 and Pan Bacteria 3 are designed to detect the broadest possible collection of bacteria involved in human biology. We began by designing assays against evolutionarily conserved regions of the 16S rRNA gene. Bioinformatically these two assays are predicted to test positive for thousands of species, based off of perfect matches and near-perfect matches of the primers and probes with the target sequences. In order to confirm this on the bench, we assayed genomic DNA from 119 species. In the case of both assays, nearly all of the species showed amplification. Positive tests were recorded for species within these 7 phyla: Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Euryarchaeota, Firmicutes, Fusobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Tenericutes. Additionally, Pan Bacteria 3 detected species within the phylum Spirochaetes.
