Bacterial 16S Sequencing There are three kinds of rRNA sequences in bacteria, 23S, 16S and 5S. Among them, 16S rRNA is the most commonly used molecular clock in the systematic taxonomic study of bacteria due to its moderate nucleotide number, a large amount of information, high stability and easy extraction and analysis.16S rDNA is about 1540bp in length and exists in all bacterial chromosome genomes.
16S rRNA has a...
