Effect of long-term starvation on the survival, recovery, and carbon utilization profiles of a bovine Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolate from New Zealand [PDF]
The ability to maintain a dual lifestyle of colonizing the ruminant gut and surviving in nonhost environments once shed is key to the success of Escherichia coli O157:H7 as a zoonotic pathogen.

Cuts Both Ways: Proteases Modulate Virulence of Enterohemorrhagic
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) is a major cause of foodborne gastrointestinal illness. EHEC uses a specialized type III secretion system (T3SS) to form attaching and effacing lesions in the colonic epithelium and outcompete commensal gut ...

The increasing generation of vegetable by‐products represents a significant challenge for sustainable food systems, particularly in vegetable processing, where nutritionally valuable fractions are frequently discarded. However, limited evidence exists regarding the development of functional food matrices derived from these by‐products that ensure ...

The prevalence of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157 was examined in bovine faeces. EHEC O157 was isolated from the faeces of 42 (13.0%) of 324 cattle. Of the 4 farms and the facilities tested, the 3 farms and the facilities were found positive for EHEC O157. The highest isolation rate among the farms was 33.7%.

Adhesive factor/rabbit 2, a new fimbrial adhesin and a virulence factor from Escherichia coli O103, a serogroup enteropathogenic for rabbits [PDF]
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli-like E. coli strains belonging to serovar O103:K-:H2 and rhamnose-negative biotypes are highly pathogenic diarrhea-inducing strains for weaned European rabbits.

Attaching and effacing Escherichia coli downregulate DNA mismatch repair protein in vitro and are associated with colorectal adenocarcinomas in humans [PDF]
Background: Mucosa-associated Escherichia coli are frequently found in the colonic mucosa of patients with colorectal adenocarcinoma, but rarely in healthy controls. Chronic mucosal E. coli infection has therefore been linked to colonic tumourigenesis. E.

Functional characterization of the transcription factor YjjQ in Escherichia coli [PDF]
YjjQ is a FixJ/NarL‐type transcriptional regulator conserved in commensal and various pathogenic bacteria such as enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC), uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) as well as Citrobacter and Enterobacter.

Genetics, Toxicity, and Distribution of Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Hemolysin
The ability to produce enterohemolysin is regarded as a potential virulence factor for enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) and is frequently associated with severe human diseases such as hemorrhagic colitis (HC) and the hemolytic uremic syndrome ...
