OmpC-Dependent Bile Tolerance Contributes to E. coli Colonization of the Mammalian Intestine

ABSTRACT Escherichia coli persistently colonizes the mammalian intestine by mechanisms that are not fully understood. Previously, we found when streptomycin-treated mice were fed E. coli MG1655, the intestine selected for envZ missense mutants that outcompeted the wild type. The better-colonizing en...
