Abstract excerpt

Verocytotoxin-producing Escherichia coli (VTEC) are food borne pathogens causing severe human infections. The virulence genes asset of VTEC is complex and has not been completely defined yet. Nonetheless, all the virulence genes described so far have been described as conveyed by mobile genetic elements. A gene, termed toxB, has been identified in a large virulence plasmid of VTEC O157, later described in similar...
