The long polar fimbriae (lpf) operon and its flanking regions in bovine Escherichia coli O157:H43 and STEC O136:H12 strains [PDF]
, 2013 Long polar fimbriae (Lpf) are intestinal adhesins and important virulence factors of pathogenic Escherichia coli strains. We cloned and sequenced the lpf2-1 operon (lpf2ABCD) and its flanking regions of an intimin- and Shiga toxin-negative E.

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.

Molecular characterization of STEC isolated from Ducks and its relation to ESBL production
Ukrainian Journal of Veterinary and Agricultural Sciences, 2020 The ESBL producing genes are responsible for bacterial resistance to number of antibiotics whereas Shiga toxin producing genes are responsible for bacterial virulence. The association between ESBL producing genes and Shiga toxin producing E.
