Conditional expression of flagellar motility, curli fimbriae, and biofilms in Shiga toxin- producing Escherichia albertii

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology
Escherichia albertii is an emerging foodborne pathogen. We previously reported that some avian Shiga toxin-producing E. albertii strains exhibited higher or comparable cytotoxicity in Vero-d2EGFP cells with several enterohemorrhagic E.

Loss of Type 1 Pili and Flagella in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Leads to Reduced Phagocytosis by Human and Murine Monocytes

open access: yesPathogens
Background: Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the number one cause of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in humans. The ability to bind to uroepithelial cells through type 1 pili and ascend the urinary tract via flagella is important in the early ...
