Mcc1229, an Stx2a-amplifying microcin, is produced <i>in vivo</i> and requires CirA for activity

2021-07-20

Abstract excerpt

Enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC) strains, including the foodborne pathogen E. coli O157:H7, are responsible for thousands of hospitalizations each year. Various environmental triggers can modulate pathogenicity in EHEC by inducing expression of Shiga toxin (Stx), which is encoded on a lambdoid prophage and transcribed together with phage late genes. Cell-free supernatants of the sequence type (ST) 73 E. coli st...
