Anthropogenic Disruption Versus Natural Restoration: Enterobacter cloacae‐Driven Barnacle Larval Settlement and Its Mitigation via Natural Bacteriophages

open access: yesMicrobial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2026.
Anthropogenic‐derived E. cloacae colonises marine cooling water systems, where chlorine exposure drives cross‐resistance and enhances biofilm formation, creating hotspots for barnacle larval settlement. This work reveals a previously unrecognised mechanism linking microbial pollution to marine biofouling.

A previously uncharacterized gene stm0551 plays a repressive role in the regulation of type 1 fimbriae in Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2012
Background Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium produces surface-associated fimbriae that facilitate adherence of the bacteria to a variety of cells and tissues. Type 1 fimbriae with binding specificity to mannose residues are the most commonly found

Immunoglobulin domains in Escherichia coli and other enterobacteria: from pathogenesis to applications in antibody technologies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The immunoglobulin (Ig) protein domain is widespread in nature having a well-recognized role in proteins of the immune system. In this review, we describe the proteins containing Ig-like domains in Escherichia coli and entero-bacteria, reporting their ...

Morphological and immunocytochemical analysis of Escherichia coli -specific surface antigens in wildtype strains and in recombinant Vibrio cholerae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Adhesion is the first step in the pathogenesis of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infections. The genes encoding the most prevalent adhesion factors CFA/I, CS3 and CS6 were cloned into Vibrio cholerae strain CVD 103-HgR and expression of fimbriae was ...

Shiga toxin production and translocation during microaerobic human colonic infection with Shiga toxin-producing E. coli O157:H7 and O104:H4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Haemolytic uraemic syndrome caused by Shiga toxin-producing E. coli (STEC) is dependent on release of Shiga toxins (Stxs) during intestinal infection and subsequent absorption into the bloodstream.

Urinary tract infections in pregnancy : studies in vivo and in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The risk of urinary tract infection (UTI) in pregnant women is increased and predisposes them to acute pyelonephritis together with poor pregnancy outcomes.

Synergy between type 1 fimbriae expression and C3 opsonisation increases internalisation of E. coli by human tubular epithelial cells

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2009
Background Bacterial infection of the urinary tract is a common clinical problem with E. coli being the most common urinary pathogen. Bacterial uptake into epithelial cells is increasingly recognised as an important feature of infection.

Exploring dangerous connections between Klebsiella pneumoniae biofilms and healthcare-associated infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Healthcare-associated infections (HAI) are a huge public health concern,particularly when the etiological agents are multidrug resistant. The ability of bacteria to develop biofilm is a helpful skill, both to persist within hospital units and to ...
