Construction and expression of recombinant plasmids encoding type 1 or D-mannose-resistant pili from a urinary tract infection Escherichia coli isolate
Open accessAbstract
Isolates of Escherichia coli from human urinary tract infections frequently express adherence properties found less often among normal intestinal isolates. These properties include adherence to human uroepithelial cells and primary monkey kidney cells, as well as D-mannose-resistant hemagglutination of human erythrocytes, and they are mediated by a pilus type different from type 1. The genes encoding this pilus type (pyelonephritis-associated pili, pap) and those encoding type 1 pili have been cloned from a urinary tract infection isolate of E. coli and transferred to an E. coli K-12 derivative. The recombinant plasmids were found to express functional pili and to endow the new host with all of the adherence properties of the urinary tract infection isolate. Both pilus types were found to be genetically distinct, and unlike the adherence genes from bovine, porcine, and human diarrheal isolates, both were found to be chromosomally encoded.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
