Examination of Stress and Virulence Gene Expression in <i>Escherichia coli</i> O157:H7 Using Targeted Microarray Analysis
1 Aug 2008
Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli O157:H7 poses a threat to humans through food- and water-borne transmission. To investigate how environmental stresses affect the Escherichia coli O157:H7 transcriptome, we designed a targeted microarray consisting of stress response and virulence genes (n = 125) to analyze the impact of acidified (pH 3.5), cold (7.5 degrees C), and fresh tryptic soy broth (TSB) (37 degrees C) on E. coli O157:H7...
