Development of PCR for screening of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Microbiology, 1995
In this study, we determined the sequence of the EcoRI-PstI fragment of the plasmid pCVD432, also termed the enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAggEC) probe. A primer pair complementary to this probe was designed for PCR amplification of a 630-bp region. Comparison of the analysis of the EAggEC probe sequence with those in database libraries revealed

Modulation of AggR levels reveals features of virulence regulation in enteroaggregative E. coli

Communications Biology, 2021
Studying Enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC), Prieto et al have found that the 3′UTR of the gene that encodes the transcriptional activator AggR, regulates aggR transcript stability.

Migratory Birds Facilitate the Spread of Multidrug-Resistant Pathogenic Escherichia coli in Tanguar Haor of Bangladesh. [PDF]

Environ Microbiol Rep
Transmission dynamics of multidrug‐resistant pathogenic Escherichia coli in Tanguar Haor. ABSTRACT This study investigated the occurrence of pathogenic and multidrug‐resistant (MDR) Escherichia coli in migratory birds inhabiting wetland habitats. A total of 167 freshly voided faecal samples were collected from migratory birds during the winters of 2023

Epidemiology and Clinical Manifestations of Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli [PDF]

Clinical Microbiology Reviews, 2014
SUMMARY Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) represents a heterogeneous group of E. coli strains. The pathogenicity and clinical relevance of these bacteria are still controversial.

Characterization of the AggR Regulon in Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli [PDF]

Infection and Immunity, 2013
ABSTRACT AggR is a transcriptional regulator of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) and has been proposed as the defining factor for typical EAEC strains. Expression of multiple putative virulence factors, including the aggregative adherence fimbriae (AAF), dispersin, the dispersin translocator Aat ...

Autotransporters and virulence of enteroaggregativeE. coli [PDF]

Gut Microbes, 2011
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is an emerging pathogen associated with acute and persistent diarrhea in children and adults. EAEC strains are very heterogeneous and the pathogenesis of EAEC diarrhea is complex and not completely understood. Studies have suggested three major features of EAEC pathogenesis: abundant adherence to the intestinal

Complete genome sequence and comparative metabolic profiling of the prototypical enteroaggregative Escherichia coli strain 042.

PLoS ONE, 2010
BackgroundEscherichia coli can experience a multifaceted life, in some cases acting as a commensal while in other cases causing intestinal and/or extraintestinal disease. Several studies suggest enteroaggregative E.

Efficacy and Safety of Eculizumab in Enteroaggregative E. coli Associated Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome

Pediatric Reports
Background. Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) may present atypically without the full triad of classical HUS. Eculizumab has been shown to be efficacious in complement-mediated atypical HUS and some cases of Shiga-toxin (ST) associated HUS.
