Expression and regulation of the Escherichia coli O157:H7 effector proteins NleH1 and NleH2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
E. coli O157 carries two genes encoding the effector proteins NleH1 and NleH2 which are 87% identical. Despite the similarity between the proteins, the promoter regions upstream of the genes encoding the effectors are more divergent suggesting that the ...

Extensive genomic diversity and selective conservation of virulence determinants in enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli strains of O157 and non O157 serotypes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Background: Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157 causes severe food-borne illness in humans. The chromosome of O157 consists of 4.1 Mb backbone sequences shared by benign E.

Repetitive N-WASP–binding elements of the Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Effector EspFU Synergistically Activate Actin Assembly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) generate F-actin–rich adhesion pedestals by delivering effector proteins into mammalian cells. These effectors include the translocated receptor Tir, along with EspFU, a protein that associates indirectly with ...

Pathogenic Potential to Humans of Bovine Escherichia coli O26, Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Escherichia coli O26 and O157 have similar overall prevalences in cattle in Scotland, but in humans, Shiga toxin–producing E. coli O26 infections are fewer and clinically less severe than E. coli O157 infections.

Competitive exclusion as a means to reduce Escherichia coli regrowth in digested sludge [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In recent years, it has been reported that numbers of Escherichia coli increase significantly following centrifugation of sludge during the treatment process. E.

Prevalence and genetic characterization of shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli isolates from slaughtered animals in Bangladesh [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
To determine the prevalence of Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) in slaughter animals in Dhaka, Bangladesh, we collected rectal contents immediately after animals were slaughtered.

Clinical Significance of Escherichia albertii

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
Discriminating Escherichia albertii from other Enterobacteriaceae is difficult. Systematic analyses showed that E. albertii represents a substantial portion of strains currently identified as eae-positive Escherichia coli and includes Shiga toxin 2f ...

Draft Genome Sequence of an Escherichia coli O157:H43 Strain Isolated from Cattle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Here we report the draft genome sequence of an Escherichia coli O157:H43 strain, designated T22, with an atypical virulence gene profile and isolated from healthy cattle.

Evaluation of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli of outbreaks of foodborne disease by molecular method

open access: yesمجله دانشگاه علوم پزشکی گرگان, 2021
Background and Objective: The most common enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli strain is the O157: H7 serotype, which is one of the most important intestinal pathogens and can cause complications such as hemorrhagic colitis, hemolytic uremic syndrome and ...

Sequence Variability of P2-Like Prophage Genomes Carrying the Cytolethal Distending Toxin V Operon in Escherichia coli O157 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cytolethal distending toxins (CDT) are potent cytotoxins of several Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria, including Escherichia coli, in which five types (CDT-I to CDT-V) have been identified so far.
