Site-directed mutagenesis of intimin alpha modulates intimin-mediated tissue tropism and host specificity

The hallmark of enteropathogenic (EPEC) and enterohaemorrhagic (EHEC) Escherchia coli adhesion to host cells is intimate attachment leading to the formation of distinctive 'attaching and effacing' lesions. This event is mediated, in part, by binding of the bacterial adhesion molecule intimin to a se...
