Novel Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli Genes Responsible for Adhesion to Chicken and Human Cell Lines
7 Aug 2020
Abstract excerpt
Avian pathogenic E. coli is not only pathogenic for commercial poultry but can also cause foodborne infections in humans utilizing the same attachment and virulence mechanisms. Our aim was to identify genes of avian pathogenic E. coli involved in adhesion to chicken and human cells in order to understand the colonization and pathogenesis of these bacteria. In contrast to the recent studies based on genotypic and...
