comparison of the common adhesin coding operons distribution in uropathogenic and phylogenetic group b2 and a escherichia coli isolates
background escherichia coli is one of the most causative pathogen of urinary tract infection. urinary tract infections (utis) are the second most common cause of morbidity and remain a serious health concern among the clinicians. the severity of uti caused by uropathogenic e. coli (upec) is due to the expression of a wide spectrum of virulent factors such as adhesin coding operons. little is kn...
متن کاملIntegrons and antibiotic resistance in phylogenetic group B2 Escherichia coli.
It has been reported that Escherichia coli B2 phylogenetic group strains are more susceptible to antibiotics, especially to quinolones, and tend to carry less integrons than other phylogenetic groups in commensal environments. To gain a better understanding of the relationships between antibiotic resistance, integrons, and phylogenetic groups in an environment with high antibiotic selective pre...
متن کاملQuinolone-resistant uropathogenic Escherichia coli strains from phylogenetic group B2 have fewer virulence factors than their susceptible counterparts.
The prevalence of 31 virulence factors was analyzed among nalidixic acid-susceptible and -resistant Escherichia coli strains from phylogenetic group B2. Hemolysin, cytotoxic necrotizing factor 1, and S and F1C fimbriae genes were less prevalent among nalidixic acid-resistant E. coli strains. Quinolone resistance may be associated with a decrease in the presence of some virulence factors.
متن کاملEnteroaggregative Escherichia coli Related to Uropathogenic Clonal Group A
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) are heterogeneous, diarrheagenic E. coli. Of EAEC strains from Nigeria, 10 independent antimicrobial-resistant isolates belonged to the multilocus sequence type 69 clonal complex, to which uropathogenic E. coli clonal group A belongs. This finding suggests a recent common ancestor for these distinct groups of pathogenic E. coli.
متن کاملComplete Genome Sequence of the Uropathogenic Escherichia coli Strain NU14
Escherichia coli is the most common bacterium causing urinary tract infections in humans. We report here the complete genome sequence of the uropathogenic Escherichia coli strain NU14, a clinical pyelonephritis isolate used for studying pathogenesis.
