Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) is the causative pathogen for most uncomplicated urinary tract infections. Flagellar-mediated motility is essential for virulence and colonization for ascending urinary tract infections. The appendage requirement for surface motility depends on the strain: nonpathogenic E. coli (NPEC) lab strains use pili, NPEC hypermotile derivatives use flagella, and UPEC strains...
