Expression of the E. coli SOS genes recA, lexA and cka was investigated on the basis of fluorescence of gene fusions with the gfp gene encoding the green fluorescent protein. Single cell analysis employing fluorescent microscopy revealed heterogenous expression of SOS genes among populations of genetically identical bacterial cells.

We investigated the prevalence of gene tcpC encoding a protein with a Toll/interlevkin-1 receptor domain involved in suppression of innate immunity among a collection of pathogenic E. coli strains and 90 E. coli commensal strains. Statistical analysis of our results revealed that the tcpP gene is more prevalent among pathogenic than among commensal strains and it is associated with the phylogenetic group B2 as well as genes for virulence factors cnf1, hlyA, papGIII, sfaDE and usp

Surface plasmon resonance revealed that pore formation by human perforin is affected by calcium but not by pH. The conformation of perforin was assessed by monoclonal antibodies.
