Abstract excerpt

Clostridium difficile is a frequent cause of severe, recurrent, post-antibiotic diarrhoea and pseudomembranous colitis. Its pathogenicity is mediated mainly by two toxins, TcdA and TcdB. However, different adhesins have also been described as important colonization factors which are implicated in the first step of the intestinal infection. In this study, we focused our interest on one of these adhesins,...
