The probe designation is in accordance with the Oligonucleotide Probe Database nomenclature (1).
Sequence for positions 305 to 322 (E. coli numbering [5]). Dashes indicate identity with the homologous nucleotides in the target sequence. There were at least three mismatches for all nontarget microorganisms.
