O-specific polysaccharide confers lysozyme resistance to extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli
Extraintestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli (ExPEC) is the leading cause of bloodstream and other extraintestinal infections in human and animals. The greatest challenge encountered by ExPEC during an infection is posed by the host defense mechanisms, including lysozyme. ExPEC have developed diverse...
