  3. Pathogenic Escherichia coli - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pathogenic_Escherichia_coli

    E. coli bacteria often carry multiple drug resistance plasmids, and under stress, readily transfer those plasmids to other species. Mixing of species in the intestines allows E. coli to accept and transfer plasmids from and to other bacteria. Thus, E. coli and the other enterobacteria are important reservoirs of transferable antibiotic ...

    For example, in the absence of oxygen, E. coli can use fumarate, nitrate, nitrite, dimethyl sulfoxide, or trimethylamine oxide as an electron acceptor. [11] This flexibility allows facultative anaerobes to survive in a number of environments, and in environments with frequently changing conditions. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escherichia_coli

    E. coli is a very versatile host for the production of heterologous proteins, [104] and various protein expression systems have been developed which allow the production of recombinant proteins in E. coli. Researchers can introduce genes into the microbes using plasmids which permit high level expression of protein, and such protein may be mass ...

    The survival of some microorganisms exposed to outer space has been studied using both simulated facilities and low Earth orbit exposures. Bacteria were some of the first organisms investigated, when in 1960 a Russian satellite carried Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus, and Enterobacter aerogenes into orbit. [1]
