Clonal distribution of the three alleles of the Gal(alpha1-4)Gal-specific adhesin gene papG among Escherichia coli strains from patients with bacteremia.

The Journal of infectious diseases - 1 Mar 1998

Abstract excerpt

The three alleles of papG, the Gal(alpha1-4)Gal-specific adhesin gene of Escherichia coli P fimbriae, were detected in 101 (54%) of 187 E. coli bacteremia isolates from Boston, Long Beach, California, and Nairobi, Kenya, by a polymerase chain reaction-based assay, and their distribution was compa...
