Biological and molecular characterization of six Shiga toxin-producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> (STEC) strains encoding the stx <sub>2</sub> gene in Colombia

2020-07-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) is a bacterial pathogen that cause diarrhea and severe human diseases. Its principal virulence factor are the Shiga toxins Stx1 and Stx2 which have been identified diverse subtypes considered to be responsible for severe complications of STEC infection. These toxins are encoded in temperate bacteriophages and their expression is linked to phage lith...
