Refining the Serine Protease Autotransporters of Enterobacteriaceae (SPATE) gene detection in Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli genomes uncovers differential SPATE distribution by phylogeny
2026-04-16
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) are a heterogenous pathotype, implicated in acute and persistent diarrhoea especially in developing countries. Serine Protease Autotransporters of Enterobacteriaceae (SPATEs) are Type V Secretory System trypsin-like proteases repeatedly reported from EAEC. This study aimed to determine SPATE encoding-gene prevalence among EAEC and their association wi...
