A link between zinc uptake, bile salts, and a capsule required for virulence of a mastitis-associated extraintestinal pathogenic <i>Escherichia coli</i> strain

2020-06-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) are major causes of urinary and bloodstream infections. ExPEC reservoirs are not completely understood. Some mastitis-associated E. coli (MAEC) strains carry genes associated with ExPEC virulence, including metal scavenging, immune avoidance, and host attachment functions. In this study, we investigated the role of the high-affinity zinc upta...
