This study analyzes the capsule operon genetics of E. coli ST131 using 3,033 genomes, identifying a monophyletic group with divergent kpsM and kpsT genes linked to host-pathogen interactions.

This study shows glucose reduces gentamicin efficacy against UPEC and influences mutation acquisition during antibiotic exposure.

This study uses genomic sequencing to show low levels of multi-drug resistant E. coli in a UK ICU during strict COVID-19 measures, with only one carbapenemase-producing strain identified.

This study introduces eight MDR plasmids into E. coli and shows varying transcriptional impacts and fitness costs, with metabolic genes frequently affected.
