Comparison of Vibrio cholerae pathogenicity islands in sixth and seventh pandemic strains.

Infection and immunity - 1 Mar 2001

Karaolis D K, Lan R, Kaper J B, Reeves P R

Abstract excerpt

Epidemic Vibrio cholerae strains possess a large cluster of essential virulence genes on the chromosome called the Vibrio pathogenicity island (VPI). The VPI contains the tcp gene cluster encoding the type IV pilus toxin-coregulated pilus colonization factor which can act as the cholera toxin bacteriophage (CTXPhi) receptor. The VPI also contains genes that regulate virulence factor expression. We have fully...
