A New Family of Potent AB5 Cytotoxins Produced by Shiga Toxigenic Escherichia coli [PDF]

The Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2004
The Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) O113:H21 strain 98NK2, which was responsible for an outbreak of hemolytic uremic syndrome, secretes a highly potent and lethal subtilase cytotoxin that is unrelated to any bacterial toxin described to date. It is the prototype of a new family of AB5 toxins, comprising a single 35-kilodalton (kD) A subunit and

Molecular Surveillance of Shiga Toxigenic Escherichia coli O157 by PulseNet USA

Journal of Food Protection, 2005
PulseNet USA is the national molecular subtyping network system for foodborne disease surveillance. Sixty-four public health and food regulatory laboratories participate in PulseNet USA and routinely perform pulsed-field gel electrophoresis of Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli isolated from humans, food, water, and the environment on a real-time basis ...

Surface adhesins and exopolymers of selected foodborne pathogens [PDF]

, 2014
The ability of bacteria to bind different compounds and to adhere to biotic and abiotic surfaces provides them with a range of advantages, such as colonization of various tissues, internalisation, avoidance of an immune response and survival and ...

The influence of the accessory genome on bacterial pathogen evolution [PDF]

, 2011
Bacterial pathogens exhibit significant variation in their genomic content of virulence factors. This reflects the abundance of strategies pathogens evolved to infect host organisms by suppressing host immunity.

Attachment of Shiga Toxigenic Escherichia coli to Beef Muscle and Adipose Tissue

Journal of Food Protection, 2006
Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) serotypes are important foodborne pathogens that cause gastrointestinal disease worldwide. An understanding of how STEC strains attach to surfaces may provide insight into the potential persistence of and contamination with STEC in food environments. The initial attachment of a selection of STEC serotypes to beef

Fate of non O157 Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli in composted cattle manure [PDF]

Arquivo Brasileiro de Medicina Veterinária e Zootecnia, 2007
To determine the fate of Shiga toxigenic Escherichia coli (STEC) non-O 157 in composted manure from naturally colonized cattle, fresh manure was obtained from three cows carrying non-O157 STEC strains possessing the stx2 gene. Two composting systems were used: a 0.6m deep cave opened in the soil and an one meter high solid manure heap in a pyramidal ...
