Unraveling the molecular basis of subunit specificity in P pilus assembly by mass spectrometry [PDF]
, 2008 P pili are multisubunit fibers essential for the attachment of uropathogenic Escherichia coli to the kidney. These fibers are formed by the noncovalent assembly of six different homologous subunit types in an array that is strictly defined in terms of ...

Detection of fimH virulence gene in uropathogenic Escherichia coli Using PCR [PDF]
مجلة جامعة الانبار للعلوم الصرفة, 2020 Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are one of main health problems caused by many microorganisms, including uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC). The virulence factors are important in colonization of UPEC, extra-intestinal survival, and creation of ...

Virulence factors of uropathogenic Escherichia coli
International Journal of Antimicrobial Agents, 2003 Virulence factors of Escherichia coli are of two main types; those produced on the surface of the cell and those produced within the cell and then exported to the site of action. Those on the surface include different sorts of fimbriae that have a role in adhesion to the surface of host cells but may also have additional roles such as tissue invasion ...

UropathogenicEscherichia coli-Associated Exotoxins [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2016 ABSTRACTEscherichia coliare a common cause of infectious disease outside of the gastrointestinal tract. Several independently evolvedE. coliclades are common causes of urinary tract and bloodstream infections. There is ample epidemiological andin vitroevidence that several different protein toxins common to many, but not all, of these strains are ...

The insect antimicrobial peptide cecropin A disrupts uropathogenic Escherichia coli biofilms
npj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2020 Current antibiotics cannot eradicate uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) biofilms, leading to recurrent urinary tract infections. Here, we show that the insect antimicrobial peptide cecropin A (CecA) can destroy planktonic and sessile biofilm-forming ...

Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli Related to Uropathogenic Clonal Group A
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2007 Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) are heterogeneous, diarrheagenic E. coli. Of EAEC strains from Nigeria, 10 independent antimicrobial-resistant isolates belonged to the multilocus sequence type 69 clonal complex, to which uropathogenic E.

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 ...
