Distinct Expression of Immunoglobulin-Binding Proteins in Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli Implicates High Protein Stability and a Characteristic Phenotype

Several immunoglobulin-binding proteins of Escherichia coli (Eib) have been isolated from both non-pathogenic and pathogenic E. coli strains. Shiga toxin (Stx)-producing E. coli (STEC) contain eibG either as a single gene or in combination with eibC, while other E. coli strains harbour single or mul...
