Insights into enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli diversity in Bangladesh utilizing genomic epidemiology

Abstract Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) cause more than 500,000 deaths each year in the developing world and are characterized on a molecular level by the presence of genes that encode the heat-stable (ST) and/or heat-labile (LT) enterotoxins, as well as surface structures, known as coloniz...
