Satellite phage TLCφ enables toxigenic conversion by CTX phage through dif site alteration.

Nature - 21 Oct 2010

Hassan Faizule, Kamruzzaman M, Mekalanos John J, Faruque Shah M

Abstract excerpt

Bacterial chromosomes often carry integrated genetic elements (for example plasmids, transposons, prophages and islands) whose precise function and contribution to the evolutionary fitness of the host bacterium are unknown. The CTXφ prophage, which encodes cholera toxin in Vibrio cholerae, is kno...
