Horizontally acquired papGII-containing pathogenicity islands underlie the emergence of invasive uropathogenic Escherichia coli lineages

Nature Communications, 2020
Escherichia coli is a major cause of urinary tract infection. Here, Biggel et al. provide a phylogenomic analysis of 907 clinical E. coli isolates and identify the P-fimbriae-encoding locus associated with invasive uropathogenic E. coli isolates.
