Integrative Modular, Network‐Based, and Machine Learning Framework for Predicting Accessory Genome Functions and Virulence in Escherichia coli O157:H7

MicrobiologyOpen, Volume 15, Issue 3, June 2026.
An analysis of the accessory genomes from 77 Escherichia coli O157:H7 strains using network and machine learning techniques uncovers modular communities of plasmid‐related virulence associated with IncF replicons. Accessory markers that are not directly linked to toxin genes can effectively predict the virulence status with an AUC of 0.85, facilitating

Analysis of Collection of Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome–associated Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2008
Multilocus sequence typing of 169 non-O157 enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) isolated from patients with hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) demonstrated 29 different sequence types (STs); 78.1% of these strains clustered in 5 STs.

Fate of Salmonella and Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli on Wheat Grain

Journal of Food Protection, 2021
Wheat flour has been connected to outbreaks of foodborne illnesses with increased frequency in recent years, specifically, outbreaks involving Salmonella enterica and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC). However, there is little information regarding the survival of these pathogens on wheat grain during long-term storage in a low-moisture ...

ANTIMICROBIAL RESISTANCE PATTERNS OF ESCHERICHIA COLI O157:H7 ISOLATED FROM STOOL SAMPLE OF CHILDREN

The Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2016
Background: Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli is a subset of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli that can cause diarrhea or hemorrhagic colitis in humans. Hemorrhagic colitis occasionally progresses to hemolytic uremic syndrome, is a major cause ofacute renal
