Background Salmonella spp. is a major foodborne pathogen with a wide variety of serovars associated with human cases and food sources. Nevertheless, in Europe a panel of ten serovars is responsible for up to 80% of confirmed human cases.

dnaX36 mutator of Escherichia coli: effects of the tau subunit of the DNA polymerase III holoenzyme on chromosomal DNA replication fidelity. [PDF]
The Escherichia coli dnaX36 mutant displays a mutator effect, reflecting a fidelity function of the dnaX-encoded τ subunit of the DNA polymerase III (Pol III) holoenzyme.

Bacterial pathogens utilize a myriad of mechanisms to invade mammalian hosts, damage tissue sites, and evade the immune system. One essential strategy of Gram-negative bacteria is the secretion of virulence factors through both inner and outer membranes ...

Escherichia coli K1 RS218 Interacts with Human Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells via Type 1 Fimbria Bacteria in the Fimbriated State [PDF]
Escherichia coli K1 is a major gram-negative organism causing neonatal meningitis. E. coli K1 binding to and invasion of human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMEC) are a prerequisite for E.

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.

Association Between Kinetics of Early Biofilm Formation and Clonal Lineage in Escherichia coli
BackgroundEscherichia coli biofilm formation has mostly been assessed in specific pathogenic E. coli groups. Here, we assessed the early biofilm formation (EBF), i.e., adhesion stage, using the BioFilm Ring Test® on 394 E.
