A conserved protein, BcmA, mediates motility, biofilm formation, and host colonisation in Adherent InvasiveEscherichia coli

Abstract: 25Adherent Invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) is a non-diarrhoeagenic intestinal E. coli pathotype 26 associated with Crohn's Disease. AIEC pathogenesis is characterised by biofilm formation, 27 adhesion to and invasion of intestinal epithelial cells, and intracellular replication within 28 epithelial cells and macrophages. Here, we identify and characterise a protein in the 29 prototypical AIEC strain LF82 which is required for efficient biofilm formation and dispersal -30 LF82_p314. LF82 ΔLF82_314 have defe… Show more
