Context-dependent Requirements for FimH and Other Canonical Virulence Factors in Gut Colonization by Extraintestinal Pathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i>
2017-07-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) act as commensals within the mammalian gut, but can induce pathology upon dissemination to other host environments such as the urinary tract and bloodstream. It is thought that ExPEC genomes are shaped in large part by evolutionary forces encountered within the gut where the bacteria spend much of their time, provoking the question of how thei...
