Characterization of Bacteriophages Targeting Non-O157 Shiga Toxigenic Escherichia coli
Journal of Food Protection, 2018 Non-O157 Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) are an important group of foodborne pathogens, implicated in several outbreaks and recalls in the past 2 decades. It is therefore crucial to devise effective control strategies against these pathogens. Bacteriophages present an attractive alternative to conventional pathogen control methods in the food ...

Pathologic changes in mice induced by subtilase cytotoxin, a potent new Escherichia coli AB(5) toxin that targets the endoplasmic reticulum [PDF]
, 2007 Subtilase cytotoxin (SubAB) is the prototype of a recently discovered AB₅ cytotoxin family produced by certain strains of Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC).

Laboratory Practices and Incidence of Non-O157 Shiga Toxin–producing Escherichia coli Infections
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012 We surveyed laboratories in Washington State, USA, and found that increased use of Shiga toxin assays correlated with increased reported incidence of non-O157 Shiga toxin–producing Escherichia coli (STEC) infections during 2005–2010.

Animals as sources of food-borne pathogens: A review
Animal Nutrition, 2018 Food-producing animals are the major reservoirs for many foodborne pathogens such as Campylobacter species, non-Typhi serotypes of Salmonella enterica, Shiga toxin-producing strains of Escherichia coli, and Listeria monocytogenes.

Sequence Variability of P2-Like Prophage Genomes Carrying the Cytolethal Distending Toxin V Operon in Escherichia coli O157 [PDF]
, 2013 Cytolethal distending toxins (CDT) are potent cytotoxins of several Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria, including Escherichia coli, in which five types (CDT-I to CDT-V) have been identified so far.

Genotyping and antimicrobial resistance patterns of Escherichia coli O157 originating from cattle farms [PDF]
, 2011 During a Escherichia coli O157 prevalence study on cattle farms, 324 E. coli O157 isolates were collected from 68 out of 180 cattle farms. All isolates harbored the eaeA gene and the enterohemolysin (ehxA) gene. The majority of the strains only contained

Transcriptomic Analysis of Shiga-Toxigenic Bacteriophage Carriage Reveals a Profound Regulatory Effect on Acid Resistance in Escherichia coli [PDF]
, 2015 Shiga-toxigenic bacteriophages are converting lambdoid phages that impart the ability to produce Shiga toxin to their hosts. Little is known about the function of most of the genes carried by these phages or the impact that lysogeny has on the ...
