Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O104:H4: An emerging important pathogen in food safety
In 2011, Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli O104:H4 resulted in a large outbreak of bloody diarrhea and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) in Germany and 15 other countries in Europe and North America. This event raised a serious public health crisis and caused more than two billion US dollars in economic losses. In this review, we describe the classification of E. coli, the Germany outbreak, ...

Yersinia pestis causes the fatal respiratory disease pneumonic plague. Y. pestis recently evolved from the gastrointestinal pathogen Y. pseudotuberculosis; however, it is not known at what point Y. pestis gained the ability to induce a fulminant pneumonia. Here we show that the acquisition of a single gene encoding the protease Pla was sufficient for the most ancestral, deeply rooted strains of...
