Pathogenicity Islands in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Clinical Isolate of the Globally Disseminated O25:H4-ST131 Pandemic Clonal Lineage: First Report from Egypt [PDF]
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the main etiological agent of urinary tract infections (UTIs). The pathogenesis of UTIs relies upon UPEC’s acquisition of virulence determinants that are commonly inserted into large chromosomal blocks which are ...

Intestinal Colonization Traits of Pandemic Multidrug-Resistant Escherichia coli ST131 [PDF]
Epidemiological studies point to the gut as a key reservoir of multidrug resistant Escherichia coli multilocus sequence type 131 (ST131), a globally dominant pathogenic clone causing urinary tract and bloodstream infections. Here we report a detailed investigation of its intestinal lifestyle.Clinical ST131 isolates and type 1 fimbriae null mutants were

Intestinal colonization due to Escherichia coli ST131: risk factors and prevalence [PDF]
Abstract Background Escherichia coli sequence type 131 (ST131) is a successful clonal group that has dramatically spread during the last decades and is considered an important driver for the rapid increase of quinolone resistance in E. coli.
