RESUMO
DNA restriction fragments derived from the polysaccharide biosynthesis regions of cloned Escherichia coli K1, K5, and K12 capsular antigen genes hybridized only with DNA of strains determined by conventional methods to be of the same K serotype. A probe derived from the common transport region hybridized to all encapsulated E. coli strains.
