Escherichia coli O104:H4

Escherichia coli O104:H4 outbreak

See Genome Information for Escherichia coli
Outbreak of diarrhea and hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) caused by a Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli belonging to an unusual serotype (O104:H4). The outbreak began in Germany in May 2011. Analysis points to enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC) capable of producing Shiga toxin. These strains are closely related to Escherichia coli 55989 (chromosome = GenBank Accession Number CU928145 and RefSeq Accession Number NC_011748 and plasmid 55989p = GenBank Accession Number CU928159 and RefSeq Accession Number NC_011752). Additional plasmids, phage, virulence genes, and antibiotic resistance functions differentiate the outbreak strains from closely related strains.
