Comparison of the nucleotide sequence of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli heat-stable enterotoxin 1 genes among diarrhea-associated Escherichia coli
17 Jan 2006
Abstract excerpt
The presence of the enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAggEC) heat-stable enterotoxin 1 (EAST1) gene was investigated in 15 strains each of EAggEC, enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC), EPEC-related strains of non-EPEC serotypes, diffusely adhering E. coli (type 1 DAEC) that carries F1845 adhesive pili (or a related adhesin), and enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC) by PCR and colony hybridization. The EAST1 gene or its...
