The Tip of the Iceberg: On the Roles of Regulatory Small RNAs in the virulence of Enterohemorrhagic and Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli

Enterohemorrhagic and enteropathogenic Escherichia coli are gastrointestinal pathogens that disrupt the intestinal microvilli to form attaching and effacing (A/E) lesions on infected cells and cause diarrhea.This pathomorphological trait is encoded within the pathogenicity island locus of enterocyte effacement (LEE).The LEE houses a type 3 secretio
