Cloning, expression and purification of the general stress protein Yhbo from Escherichia coli [PDF]
We cloned, expressed and purified the Escherichia coli yhbO gene product, which is homolog to the Bacillus subtilis general stress protein 18 (the yfkM gene product), the Pyrococcus furiosus intracellular protease PfpI, and the human Parkinson disease protein DJ-1. The gene coding for YhbO was generated by amplifying the yhbO gene from E.

Revisiting the STEC Testing Approach: Using espK and espV to Make Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) Detection More Reliable in Beef [PDF]
Current methods for screening Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157 and non-O157 in beef enrichments typically rely on the molecular detection of stx, eae, and serogroup-specific wzx or wzy gene fragments.

From ingestion to colonization: the influence of the host environment on regulation of the LEE encoded type III secretion system in enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli [PDF]
Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) binds to host tissue and intimately attaches to intestinal cells using a dedicated type III secretion system (T3SS). This complex multi-protein organelle is encoded within a large pathogenicity island called the

Response to: Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157 in Libya
We have read with interest the Letter to the Editor by Ahmed and Abouzeed reporting on the important issue of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli O157 (EHEC O157) in dairy cattle in Libya (1). Based on two cited references, the authors state that: “Surveys of diarrheal stools from children in African nations, including Libya, have detected EHEC O157 in ...

Outbreak of Escherichia coli O157 in Sweden
The Swedish Institute for Infectious Disease Control (Smittskyddsinstitutet - SMI) received no more than three reports of enterohaemorrhagic E. coli O157 infections (EHEC) each year from 1988 to 1994. About half of these were due to E. coli O157.
