ABSTRACT:
Polynucleotides and oligonucleotides for identification of species of the Streptococcus genus and the Enterococcus genus are provided. The polynucleotides and oligonucleotides are useful as probes and primers. Polypeptides expressed by the polynucleotides and oligonucleotides are useful for the preparation of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies that recognize the polypeptides.
