Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) strains
require intimin to induce attaching and effacing (A/E) lesions in
newborn piglets. Infection of newborn calves with intimin-positive or intimin-negative EHEC O157:H7 demonstrated that intimin is needed for colonization, A/E lesions, and disease in cattle. These
results suggest that experiments to determine if intimin-based
vaccines reduce O157:H7 levels in cattle are warranted.
