The Intriguing Evolutionary Journey of Enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC) toward Pathogenicity
Among the intestinal pathogenic Escherichia coli, enteroinvasive E. coli (EIEC) are a group of intracellular pathogens able to enter epithelial cells of colon, multiplicate within them, and move between adjacent cells with a mechanism similar to Shigella, the ethiological agent of bacillary dysenter...
