  • Title: Prevalence of secreted autotransporter toxin gene among diffusely adhering Escherichia coli isolated from stools of children.
    Author: Taddei CR, Moreno AC, Fernandes Filho A, Montemor LP, Martinez MB.
    Journal: FEMS Microbiol Lett; 2003 Oct 24; 227(2):249-53. PubMed ID: 14592716.
    Abstract:
    In this report, we analyzed the prevalence of the sat gene in 336 Escherichia coli samples collected from stools of children with and without diarrhea in Brazil and in 100 uropathogenic E. coli strains. The results show a high correlation between diffusely adhering E. coli (DAEC) and the presence of sat (44%) in intestinal isolates. DAEC strain FBC114 expresses a 107-kDa protein, which showed 98% homology with Sat.
