Abstract excerpt
The rpoS nucleotide and predicted amino acid sequences from three Escherichia coli O157:H7 isolates were compared with those from three other E. coli isolates, including the likely O157:H7 progenitor, E. coli O55:H7. These clinical and environmental isolates all had identical sigma S amino acid sequences, while laboratory strains K12 and DH1 had three and one amino acid alterations, respectively, in comparison...
