Genome-wide expression profiling in malaria infection reveals transcriptional changes associated with lethal and nonlethal outcomes.

abstract：:Citrobacter rodentium is an attaching and effacing pathogen which causes transmissible colonic hyperplasia in mice. Infection with C. rodentium serves as a model for infection of humans with enteropathogenic and enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli. To identify novel colonization factors of C. rodentium, we screened a s...
