Additional file 3. Primers and detection oligo. Excel file listing the primers used for amplification and transcription reactions and as detection oligo. Reverse primers consist of the 20-mers complementary sequence linked to the 3’ end of the T7 sequence 5’-CGATTGAGGCCGGTAATACGACTCACTATAGGG-3’ [45]. Forward primer 20-mers are linked to the 3’ end of the adapter sequence. The resulting 53-mers reverse primer and 40-mers forward primer oligo were used for PCR. Forward primers were used also for RT-PCR. The fluorophore-linked homolog of the specific 20-mers adapter was the detector of probe binding. These 30 oligo were purchased from IDT as custom standard or HPLC-purified DNA.
