COMPLETE GENOMIC SEQUENCE OF SIX SHIGA-TOXIGENIC E. COLI (STEC) NON-O157 STRAINS

Objective

1) To collect complete genomic sequence of six STEC non-O157 stains of the following serotypes: O26, O111, O103, O121, O45, and O145. 2) To search for serotype-specific DNA sequences that can be used to develop a single PCR-based assay for the detection of the top six CDC non-O157 STECs.
