Expression of cellulose and curli fimbriae by Escherichia coli isolated from the gastrointestinal tract.

Journal of medical microbiology - 1 Dec 2005

Bokranz Werner, Wang Xiaoda, Tschäpe Helmut, Römling Ute

Abstract excerpt

Escherichia coli colonizes the gastrointestinal tract of humans; however, little is known about the features of commensal strains. This study investigated whether expression of the biofilm extracellular matrix components cellulose and curli fimbriae is found among commensal isolates. Fifty-two E. coli strains were isolated from faecal samples and, as a control, 24 strains from urinary tract infections were also...
