Mechanisms that Determine the Differential Stability of Stx⁺ and Stx(-) Lysogens.
Phages 933W, BAA2326, 434, and λ are evolutionarily-related temperate lambdoid phages that infect Escherichia coli. Although these are highly-similar phages, BAA2326 and 933W naturally encode Shiga toxin 2 (Stx⁺), but phage 434 and λ do not (Stx(-)). Previous reports suggest that the 933W Stx⁺ prophage forms less stable lysogens in E. coli than does the Stx(-) prophages λ, P22, and 434. The hig...
متن کاملClinical Escherichia coli strains carrying stx genes: stx variants and stx-positive virulence profiles.
Altogether, 173 Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) serotype O157 (n = 111) and non-O157 (n = 62) isolates from 170 subjects were screened by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism for eight different stx genes. The results were compiled according to serotypes, phage types of O157, production of Stx toxin and enterohemolysin, and the presence of eae. The stx genes occurred in 11...
متن کاملShiga Toxin (Stx) Type 1a Reduces the Oral Toxicity of Stx Type 2a
BACKGROUND Shiga toxin (Stx) is the primary virulence factor of Stx-producing Escherichia coli (STEC). STEC can produce Stx1a and/or Stx2a, which are antigenically distinct. However, Stx2a-producing STEC are associated with more severe disease than strains producing both Stx1a and Stx2a. METHODS AND RESULTS To address the hypothesis that the reason for the association of Stx2a with more sever...
متن کاملStreaming Transformations for XML-STX
STX (Streaming Transformations for XML) ist eine Transformationssprache, die als schnelle und speicherschonende Alternative zu XSLT entworfen wurde. STX weist gewisse syntaktische Ähnlichkeiten zu XSLT auf, arbeitet jedoch auf einem Strom von SAX-Events und transformiert diesen unmittelbar in einen entsprechenden Ergebnis-Strom. STX-Transformationen können auf diese Weise unter anderem als SAX-...
