Abstract


The major problem associated with bacteria classification, identification and identification is due to a
lack of data and methods.  Correct data is crucial for the nomenclature of bacteria.  Bacteria in this
regard, molecular approach is advantageous because it reveals the identitiy of bacteria.  The 16S
rRNA gene as molecular characteristic have been developed to be a useful marker molecular of
procaryote for systematics. Identification of bacteria by 16S rRNA gene sequencing  is considered to
be more accurate than phenotypic characteristics. In conclusion, the sequence analysis of 16S rRNA
proved to be a useful  molecular data for identification new strain of pathogenic bacteria. The isolate
was identifiedas Bacillus cereus strain C4 after 16S rRNA gene sequencing and alignment by BLAST.
Keywords : NA, 16S rRNA, Bacillus cereus, phylogenetic study
