Abstract excerpt

Epidemic Vibrio cholerae contain a large essential virulence gene cluster called the Vibrio pathogenicity island (VPI). We recently reported that no in vitro difference in virulence was found in El Tor strain N16961 containing a mutation in the VPI-encoded mop gene but this mutant was hypervirulent and reactogenic in rabbit ileal loops. In this paper, we report in vitro studies showing that independent Mop...
