Enteropathogenic and enterohaemorrhagic E scherichia coli use a novel infection strategy
to colonize the gut epithelium, involving translocation of their own receptor, Tir, via a type III …

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) adhere to the intestinal mucosa and to tissue
culture cells in a distinctive fashion, destroying microvilli, altering the cytoskeleton and …

Bacterial pathogenicity islands (PAI) often encode both effector molecules responsible for
disease and secretion systems that deliver these effectors to host cells. Human …

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is a bacterial pathogen that causes infantile
diarrhea worldwide. EPEC injects a bacterial protein, translocated intimin receptor (Tir), into …

Enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EPEC and EHEC) strains are
human and animal pathogens that inject effector proteins into host cells via a type III …

The family of attaching and effacing (A/E) bacterial pathogens, which includes diarrheagenic
enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) and enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC), remains …

Many studies have shown that genetic susceptibility plays a key role in determining whether
bacterial pathogens successfully infect and cause disease in potential hosts. Surprisingly …

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) is a causative agent of infant diarrhoea in
developing countries. The EspF protein is the product of the espF gene found on the locus of …

Citrobacter rodentium infection of mice serves as a relevant small animal model to study
enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) and enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) …

Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) and enterohaemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) are
closely related pathogens. Both use a type III secretion system (TTSS) encoded by the 'locus …
