Virulence plasmid diversity in Clostridium perfringens type D isolates.

Infection and immunity - 1 May 2007

Sayeed Sameera, Li Jihong, McClane Bruce A

Abstract excerpt

Clostridium perfringens type D isolates are important in biodefense and also cause natural enterotoxemias in sheep, goats, and occasionally cattle. In these isolates, the gene (etx) encoding epsilon-toxin is thought to reside on poorly characterized large plasmids. Type D isolates sometimes also...
