Escherichia coli belongs to the Enterobacteriacea and is one of the best-studied microorganism. These bacteria are associated with human and animal diseases. On the other hand, E. coli is used more and more beneficially as an (alert) bioreporter and for risk assessment purposes of chemical ...
Escherichiacoliis a Gram-negative facultative anaerobic nonspore-forming motile rod. The species belongs to theEnterobacteriaceaefamily of the γ-(Greek gamma) Proteobacteria and includes a large number of strains that differ in pathogenic potential. Certain strains are common innocuous residents of the...
Escherichia, a genus of anaerobic gram-negative bacilli, belongs to the family Enterobacteriaceae [1]. In 1884, a German paediatrician named Theodore Escherichia was the first to isolateE. colifrom the faeces of human infants [2]. Later,E. coliwas found to colonize the intestinal tract of inf...
coli has been recovered from a human in Spain and from a dog in Germany (http://mlst.warwick.ac.uk/mlst/dbs/ Ecoli). ST3835 belongs to the ST10 complex. Besides ST3835, STs belonging to the ST10 complex (ST40, ST167, ST205, ST744 and ST1237), ST88 complex (ST224 and ST410...
Escherichia coli ST58 has recently emerged as a globally disseminated uropathogen that often progresses to sepsis. Unlike most pandemic extra-intestinal pathogenic E. coli (ExPEC), which belong to pathogenic phylogroup B2, ST58 belongs to the environment
The protein belongs to the eukaryotic CLK-1/Coq7p family, which is also similar to the bacterial Coq7 family, that hydroxylates demethoxyubiquinone, resulting in the formation of hydroxyubiquinone, a precursor of ubiquinone. In Escherichia coli, the corresponding reaction is catalyzed by UbiF, a...
coli. To date, promising results for microbial production of free fatty acids and derived products have been obtained mainly by metabolic engineering, but for the production of large amounts of cheap biofuels much effort still needs to be undertaken. For this a detailed knowledge about the ...
Avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) is the cause of colibacillosis outbreaks in young poultry chicks, resulting in acute to peracute death. The high morbidity and mortality caused by colibacillosis results in poor animal welfare, reduced sustainability and economical loss worldwide. To advance...
YidC of Escherichia coli belongs to the evolutionarily conserved Oxa1/Alb3/YidC family. Members of this family have all been implicated in membrane protein biogenesis of aerobic respiratory and energy-transducing proteins. YidC is essential for the insertion of subunit c of the F1F0-ATP ...
In the following review, we present a synthesis of current understanding of the Escherichia coli multidrug resistance transporter, MdtM, a 410 amino acid residue protein that belongs to the large and ubiquitous major facilitator superfamily (MFS)....
