Shiga Toxin 2–Specific but Not Shiga Toxin 1–Specific Human Monoclonal Antibody Protects Piglets Challenged with EnterohemorrhagicEscherichia coliProducing Shiga Toxin 1 and Shiga Toxin 2 [PDF]
The Journal of Infectious Diseases, 2010 Escherichia coli strains that produce Shiga toxin 2 (Stx2) are isolated from hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) cases more frequently than are strains that produce both Shiga toxin 1 (Stx1) and Stx2, whereas strains that produce only Stx1 are rarely isolated from HUS cases.

Retrograde transport pathways utilised by viruses and protein toxins [PDF]
, 2006 A model has been presented for retrograde transport of certain toxins and viruses from the cell surface to the ER that suggests an obligatory interaction with a glycolipid receptor at the cell surface. Here we review studies on the ER trafficking cholera

Revisiting the STEC Testing Approach: Using espK and espV to Make Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) Detection More Reliable in Beef [PDF]
, 2016 Current methods for screening Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157 and non-O157 in beef enrichments typically rely on the molecular detection of stx, eae, and serogroup-specific wzx or wzy gene fragments.
