Enteropathogenic (EPEC) and Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) represent important pathotypes among E. coli strains causing enteric infections. EPEC is divided in typical and atypical. Typical EPEC by definition is characterized by the presence of the eae and bfp genes, while EPEC-a harbors eae but are devoid of bfp, and both, typical and atypical EPEC, lack stx gene responsibl…
In most countries Escherichia coli of serogroups O145 and O63 are associated with Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC). STEC strains belonging to these serogroups harbor beyond stx genes for Shiga toxins (Stx) production, the eae gene, a virulence marker defining Enteropathogenic E. coli pathotype (EPEC). In Brazil O145 and O63 E. coli strains are often recovered from cases of hu…
Bacteria belonging to the genus Shigella are the etiologic agents of the shigellosis or bacillary dysentery. Among the four species that compose this genus, Shigella flexneri is predominant in areas of low sanitation conditions and poverty. The characterization of Shigella flexneri strains associated with human infections is of great importance because it provides subsidies for the unders…
