Abstract excerpt
Oligonucleotide probes directed to the inv and ail invasion genes of Yersinia species were used to analyse yersiniae and non-yersiniae isolates by colony hybridization. The INV-3 probe, targeted to the inv gene of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, hybridized with all 48 HeLa cell-invasive Y. pseudotuberculosis isolates examined; the PF-13 probe, specific for the ail gene of Yersinia enterocolitica, identified all...
