Locus of Adhesion and Autoaggregation (LAA), a pathogenicity island present in emerging Shiga Toxin–producing Escherichia coli strains

26 Jul 2017

Abstract excerpt

Shiga Toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) are a group of foodborne pathogens associated with diarrhea, dysentery, hemorrhagic colitis (HC) and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS). Shiga toxins are the major virulence factor of these pathogens, however adhesion and colonization to the human intestine is required for STEC pathogenesis. A subset of STEC strains carry the Locus of Enterocyte Effacement (LEE)...
