Article Synopsis
- Enterohemorrhagic and enteropathogenic E. coli are critical food-borne pathogens that significantly threaten global health.
- The virulence factor intimin, which helps these bacteria attach to intestinal cells, consists of multiple domains, including D00-D2 and a fifth subdomain (D3) that interacts with the host's Tir receptor.
- Recent crystal structure analysis revealed that the D00-D0 domains are rigid and likely serve as a junction point, suggesting that D00 is a unique domain found in many similar bacterial transporters.
