Abstract excerpt
Escherichia albertii is a potential enteric food-borne pathogen with poorly defined genetic and biochemical properties. Acid resistance is perceived to be an important property of enteric pathogens, enabling them to survive passage through stomach acidity so that they may colonize the mammalian gastrointestinal tract. We analyzed glutamate-dependent acid-resistance pathway (GDAR) in five E. albertii strains that...
