The locus of enterocyte effacement (LEE) pathogenicity island of enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 possesses the same genes in identical order and orientation as the LEE of enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) O127:H6 but is unable to form attaching and effacing (A/E) lesions or to secrete Esp proteins when it is cloned in an E. coli K-12 background. The A/E phenotype could not be re...

Diarrheal disease is still a major public health concern, as it considered an important cause of death in children under five years age. A few decades ago, the detection enteropathogenic E. coli was made by detecting O, H, and K antigens, mostly agglutination. The recent protocols recommend molecular methods for diagnosing EPEC, they can distinguish between typical atypical EPEC identifying pre...
