The diverse sporulation characteristics of Clostridium difficile clinical isolates are not associated with type.

Anaerobe - 1 Dec 2010

Burns David A, Heap John T, Minton Nigel P

Abstract excerpt

Clostridium difficile causes diarrhoeal diseases ranging from asymptomatic carriage to a fulminant, relapsing, and potentially fatal colitis. Endospore production plays a vital role in transmission of infection, and in order to cause disease these spores must then germinate and return to vegetative cell growth. Type BI/NAP1/027 strains of C. difficile have recently become highly represented among clinical...
