<prompt> Which of these is true of E. ColiThe L.T labile toxin in ETEC acts cAMPIn type causing UTI the organism attaches piliThe S.T stable-toxin of ETEC is responsible for causing hemolytic-uremic syndrome HUSEIEC invasiveness is under plasmid control  <response>: Heat-labile toxin of E.coli acts similar to Cholera toxin as it binds to GM1 ganglioside receptors on intestinal epithelial cells by means of subunit B, following which subunit A is activated to yield two fragments: A1 and A2. The A1 fragment activates adenyl cyclase in the enterocyte to form CAMP, leading to an increased outflow of water and electrolytes into the gut lumen, with consequent watery diarrhea.
