Identification of a group 1-like capsular polysaccharide operon for Vibrio vulnificus.

Infection and immunity - 1 Nov 2001

Wright A C, Powell J L, Kaper J B, Morris J G

Abstract excerpt

Virulence of Vibrio vulnificus correlates with changes in colony morphology that are indicative of a reversible phase variation for expression of capsular polysaccharide (CPS). Encapsulated variants are virulent with opaque colonies, whereas phase variants with reduced CPS expression are attenuated and are translucent. Using TnphoA mutagenesis, we identified a V. vulnificus CPS locus, which included an upstream...
