Molecular evolution of Vibrio pathogenicity island-2 (VPI-2): mosaic structure among Vibrio cholerae and Vibrio mimicus natural isolates.

Microbiology (Reading, England) - 1 Jan 2005

Jermyn William S, Boyd E Fidelma

Abstract excerpt

Vibrio cholerae is a Gram-negative rod that inhabits the aquatic environment and is the aetiological agent of cholera, a disease that is endemic in much of Southern Asia. The 57.3 kb Vibrio pathogenicity island-2 (VPI-2) is confined predominantly to toxigenic V. cholerae O1 and O139 serogroup isolates and encodes 52 ORFs (VC1758 to VC1809), which include homologues of an integrase (VC1758), a restriction...
