Abstract excerpt
Adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) have been extensively implicated in Crohn's disease pathogenesis. Currently, AIEC is identified phenotypically, since no molecular marker specific for AIEC exists. An algorithm based on single nucleotide polymorphisms was previously presented as a potential molecular tool to classify AIEC/non-AIEC, with 84% accuracy on a collection of 50 strains isolated in Girona...
