The bacterial genetic determinants of <i>Escherichia coli</i> capacity to cause bloodstream infections in humans
2023-01-02
Abstract excerpt
Escherichia coli is both a highly prevalent commensal and a major opportunistic pathogen causing bloodstream infections (BSI). A systematic analysis characterizing the genomic determinants of extra-intestinal pathogenic vs. commensal isolates in human populations, which could inform mechanisms of pathogenesis, diagnostics, prevention and treatment is still lacking. We used a collection of 1282 BSI and commensal E...
