Amino acid substitutions in naturally occurring variants of ail result in altered invasion activity.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Feb 1992

Beer K B, Miller V L

Abstract excerpt

Yersinia enterocolitica is the causative agent of a variety of gastrointestinal syndromes ranging from acute enteritis to mesenteric lymphadenitis. In addition, systemic infections resulting in high mortality rates can occur in elderly and immunocompromised patients. More than 50 serotypes of Y. enterocolitica have been identified, but only a few of them commonly cause disease in otherwise healthy hosts. Those...
