Sporulation and enterotoxin (CPE) synthesis are controlled by the sporulation-specific sigma factors SigE and SigK in Clostridium perfringens.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Apr 2009

Harry Kathryn H, Zhou Ruanbao, Kroos Lee, Melville Stephen B

Abstract excerpt

Clostridium perfringens is the third most frequent cause of bacterial food poisoning annually in the United States. Ingested C. perfringens vegetative cells sporulate in the intestinal tract and produce an enterotoxin (CPE) that is responsible for the symptoms of acute food poisoning. Studies of...
