Escherichia coli are commensal bacteria in the gastrointestinal tract of mammals, but some strains have acquired Shiga-toxins and can cause enterohemorrhagic diarrhoea and kidney failure in humans. Shiga-toxigenic E. coli (STEC) strains such as E.

Computing preimages of Boolean Networks [PDF]
In this paper we present an algorithm to address the predecessor problem of feed-forward Boolean networks. We propose an probabilistic algorithm, which solves this problem in linear time with respect to the number of nodes in the network. Finally, we evaluate our algorithm for random Boolean networks and the regulatory network of Escherichia coli.

Some mathematical tools for the Lenski experiment [PDF]
The Lenski experiment is a long term daily reproduction of Escherichia coli, that has evidenced phenotypic and genetic evolutions along the years. Some mathematical models, that could be usefull in understanding the results of that experiment, are reviewed here: stochastic and deterministic growth, mutation appearance and fixation, competition of ...

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli are zoonotic pathogens that cause food-borne human disease. Among these, the O157:H7 serotype has evolved from an enteropathogenic O55:H7 ancestor through the displacement of the somatic gene cluster and recurrent ...

Chemotaxing E. coli do not count single molecules [PDF]
Understanding biological functions requires identifying the physical limits and system-specific constraints that have shaped them. In Escherichia coli chemotaxis, gradient-climbing speed is information-limited, bounded by the sensory information they acquire from real-time measurements of their environment.
