CRISPR Screen Reveals that EHEC’s T3SS and Shiga Toxin Rely on Shared Host Factors for Infection

ABSTRACT Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) has two critical virulence factors—a type III secretion system (T3SS) and Shiga toxins (Stxs)—that are required for the pathogen to colonize the intestine and cause diarrheal disease. Here, we carried out a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9 (clustered regular...
