Subtilase cytotoxin from Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli impairs the inflammasome and exacerbates enteropathogenic bacterial infection [PDF]
iScience, 2021 Subtilase cytotoxin (SubAB) is an AB5 toxin mainly produced by the locus of enterocyte effacement-negative Shiga-toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) strain such as O113:H21, yet the contribution of SubAB to STEC infectious disease is unclear. We found that SubAB reduced activation of the STEC O113:H21 infection-induced non-canonical NLRP3 inflammasome ...

Genomic Profiling of Non-O157 Shiga Toxigenic Escherichia coli-Infecting Bacteriophages from South Africa. [PDF]
Phage (New Rochelle), 2022 Background Non-O157 Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) are one of the most important food and waterborne pathogens worldwide. Although bacteriophages (phages) have been used for the biocontrol of these pathogens, a comprehensive understanding of the
