Coexpression of colanic acid and serotype-specific capsular polysaccharides in Escherichia coli strains with group II K antigens.

abstract：:The human pathogen Eikenella corrodens expresses type IV pili and exhibits a phase variation involving the irreversible transition from piliated to nonpiliated variants. On solid medium, piliated variants form small (S-phase), corroding colonies whereas nonpiliated variants form large (L-phase), noncorroding colonies....
