An Attenuated Escherichia coli K88ac LT(S63K)ΔSTb Efficiently Provides Protection Against Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli in the Mouse Model

To develop an attenuated vaccine candidate against K88ac enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC), a novel Escherichia coli (E. coli) K88ac LT(S63K)ΔSTb with LT(S63K) mutation and ST1 deletion was generated using site mutagenesis and λ-Red homologous recombination based on wild paternal ETEC strain C...
