Mutation accumulation and fitness in mutator subpopulations of Escherichia coli.

TL;DR: It is suggested that isolates with deleterious mutations are eliminated by competition in a continuous culture, leaving mutators with mostly neutral mutations, suggesting that the mutator–non-mutator ratio in populations has more to do with competition between members of the population than the accumulation of deleteriously mutations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural relation of the antigenic polysaccharides of Escherichia coli O40, Shigella dysenteriae type 9, and E. coli K47.

TL;DR: O-polysaccharides were isolated from the lipopolysaccharide of Escherichia coli O40 and Shigella dysenteriae type 9 and studied by chemical analyses along with (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Living Trees: High-Quality Reproducible and Reusable Construction of Bacterial Phylogenetic Trees.

TL;DR: SaRTree is a pipeline using six "living trees" modules that provides for reuse of the tree and offers a major step towards global standardization of phylogenetic analysis by generating deposit files including all steps involved in phylogenetic inference.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of E. coli O24 and O56 O Antigen Gene Clusters Reveals a Complex Evolutionary History of the O24 Gene Cluster

TL;DR: This is the first time that the evolutionary history of a multi-origin O antigen gene cluster is clearly demonstrated and may be used for development of DNA-based serotyping schemes.
