Virulence gene profiles of extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) from Zambia: a secondary in silico study

2026-06-30

Abstract excerpt

This secondary in silico study analysed 36 Escherichia coli draft genome assemblies from Zambia to characterise the virulence gene profiles of extraintestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC) and to relate them to mobilome proxies, namely plasmid replicons and prophage content. All assemblies met plausibility thresholds for E. coli (1–17 contigs; 4.85–5.77 Mb; GC 50.47–50.96%), and species identity was confirmed by aver...
