The prevalence and genomic context of Shiga toxin 2a genes in <i>E. coli</i> found in cattle

2020-04-14

Abstract excerpt

Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) that cause severe disease predominantly carry the toxin gene variant stx 2a . However, the role of Shiga toxin in the ruminant reservoirs of this zoonotic pathogen is poorly understood and strains that cause severe disease in humans (HUSEC) likely constitute a small and atypical subset of the overall STEC flora. The aim of this study was to investigate the presence o...
