An “omics” approach to uropathogenic Escherichia coli vaccinology [PDF]

Trends in Microbiology, 2009
Urinary tract infection (UTI) occurs when bacteria, most commonly uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) [1], contaminate the periurethral area and traverse the urethra to colonize the bladder. Left untreated, UPEC ascend the ureters and establish a secondary infection in the kidney parenchyma.

Antibiogram Pattern of Uropathogenic Escherichia Coli in Baghdad Province, Iraq

Journal of Techniques, 2022
Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is considered one of the main causes of urinary tract infections. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a significant global health care issue, particularly with regard to urinary tract infections.

Modelling the dynamics of intramammary E. coli infections in dairy cows: understanding mechanisms that distinguish transient from persistent infections [PDF]

, 2009
The majority of intramammary infections with Escherichia coli in dairy cows result in transient infections with duration of about 10 days or less, although more persistent infections (2 months or longer) have been identified.

Genotypic Study of Two Virulence Factors fimH and kpsMTII in Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Isolates from Children Patients with Urinary Tract Infections

مجلة بغداد للعلوم, 2014
Adhesion (type 1 fimbriae) and host defense avoidance mechanisms (capsule or lipopolysaccharide) have been shown to be prevalent in Escherichia coli isolates associated with urinary tract infections. In this work, 50 uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC)

Comparative phenotypic characterization of hybrid Shiga toxin-producing / uropathogenic Escherichia coli, canonical uropathogenic and Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli

International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2021
Hybrid Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) and uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) strains are phylogenetically positioned between STEC and UPEC and can cause both diarrhea and urinary tract infections (UTIs). However, their virulence properties

The emergence and fate of horizontally acquired genes in Escherichia coli [PDF]

, 2008
Bacterial species, and even strains within species, can vary greatly in their gene contents and metabolic capabilities. We examine the evolution of this diversity by assessing the distribution and ancestry of each gene in 13 sequenced isolates of ...

Crystal structure of the P pilus rod subunit PapA [PDF]

, 2007
P pili are important adhesive fibres involved in kidney infection by uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains. P pili are assembled by the conserved chaperone-usher pathway, which involves the PapD chaperone and the PapC usher.

Fluoroquinolone-resistant Escherichia coli, Indonesia [PDF]

, 2005
In a recent, population-based survey of 3,996 persons in Indonesia, fluoroquinolone (FQ)-resistant Escherichia coli was prevalent in the fecal flora of 6% of patients at hospital admission and 23% of patients at discharge, but not among healthy ...

The structure of the PapD-PapGII pilin complex reveals an open and flexible P5 pocket [PDF]

, 2012
P pili are hairlike polymeric structures that mediate binding of uropathogenic Escherichia coli to the surface of the kidney via the PapG adhesin at their tips.
