Secreted autotransporter toxin (Sat) induces cell damage during enteroaggregative Escherichia coli infection.

Secreted autotransporter toxin (Sat) induces cell damage during enteroaggregative Escherichia coli infection.

Secreted autotransporter toxin (Sat) is a 107-kDa serine protease autotransporter of Enterobacteriaceae (SPATE) presenting cytotoxic activity in renal and bladder cells. Further studies have detected the Sat-encoding gene (sat) in enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) and in E. coli strains isol...
