Sequence designations are as follows: 5′-GGTGTCCG1CG2CG3CG4GCATG-3′, where Gn = dG, M1G, or PdG

Results are expressed as mutation frequencies ± SD × 102 and were obtained by screening 1,000 plaques per experiment for each probe. Values are the average of three independent constructions, transformations, and hybridizations
