Biofilm as an Environment for Dissemination of stx Genes by Transduction

27 Nov 2012

Abstract excerpt

Dissemination of Shiga toxin (Stx)-encoding bacteriophages is the most likely mechanism for the spread of Stx-encoding genes and the emergence of new Stx-producing Escherichia coli (STEC). Biofilm has been reported to be a place where horizontal gene transfer by plasmid conjugation and DNA transformation may occur, and in this study, horizontal gene transfer by transduction has been demonstrated. Transfer of...
