(intimin) genes. Twenty-seven AEEC strains were isolated from 14 children (7.6%) from Melbourne and from 12 children (5.9%) from Berlin. The 27 AEEC strains were classified as enterohemorrhagic <italic>E. coli</italic>

(EPEC) (one strain carrying an EPEC adherence factor [EAF] plasmid), and atypical EPEC (25 strains negative for Shiga toxins and EAF plasmids). The AEEC were divided into 18 different serotypes, O-nontypeable and O-rough strains. Typing of their intimin genes revealed the presence of intimin α in 6 strains, intimin β in 11 strains, intimin γ in 7 strains, intimin ζ in 2 strains, and intimin η in one strain. Analysis of HEp-2 cell adherence showed diffuse adherence or localized adherence-like patterns in 26 AEEC strains; local adherence was found only with the EAF-positive strain. Ten AEEC strains showed an AE property with the fluorescent actin staining (FAS) test. The introduction of an EAF plasmid (pMAR7) converted 11 FAS-negative AEEC strains to FAS positive and increased the FAS reaction in six FAS-positive AEEC strains, indicating that the genes needed for the AE phenotype were functional in these strains. Our finding indicates that atypical EPEC strains could play a double role as strains that naturally immunize against intimin in humans and as reservoirs for new emerging human pathogenic EPEC strains.</p>
