Mutagenesis of conserved tryptophan residues within the receptor-binding domain of intimin: influence on binding activity and virulence.
Intimate bacterial adhesion to intestinal epithelium is a pathogenic mechanism shared by several human and animal enteric pathogens, including enteropathogenic and enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli and Citrobacter rodentium. The proteins directly involved in this process are the outer-membrane adh...
