Characterization and evidence of mobilization of the LEE pathogenicity island of rabbit‐specific strains of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli

Abstract
We have characterized the LEE pathogenicity islands (PAIs) of two rabbit-specific strains of enteropathogenic E. coli (REPEC), 83/39 (serotype O15:H-) and 84/110-1 (O103:H2), and have compared them ...
