The fast-developing synthetic biology (SB) has provided many genetic tools to reprogram
and engineer cells for improved performance, novel functions, and diverse applications …

Escherichia coli (EHEC) and Shigella dysenteriae serotype 1 are enterohemorrhagic
bacteria that induce hemorrhagic colitis. This, in turn, may result in potentially lethal …

Cheese consumption is increasing as well as the consumer preference for artisanal

Many cattle are persistently colonized with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC)
and represent a major source of human infections with human-pathogenic STEC strains …

Shiga toxins (Stxs) are classic bacterial toxins and major virulence factors of toxigenic
Shigella dysenteriae and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC). These toxins …

Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) are the human pathogenic subset of Shiga

Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are found in bacteria, fungi, and plants, with a wide
range of biological resistances such as anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-insect, and anti-tumor …

Apart from antibiotic resistance of pathogenic bacteria, the formation of biofilms is a feature
that makes bacterial infections especially difficulty to treat. Shiga toxin-producing …
