Aspergillus glaucus Aquaglyceroporin Gene glpF Confers High Osmosis Tolerance in Heterologous Organisms.

abstract：:Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) causes serious foodborne disease worldwide. It produces the very potent Shiga toxin 2 (Stx2). The Stx2-encoding genes are located on a prophage, and production of the toxin is linked to the synthesis of Stx phages. There is, currently, no good treatment for EHEC infections, as...
