Characterization of the hlyB gene and its role in the production of the El Tor haemolysin of Vibrio cholerae O1.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Mar 1990

Alm R A, Manning P A

Abstract excerpt

El Tor strains of Vibrio cholerae are capable of producing a haemolysin which they actively secrete into the growth medium. This requires translation to produce the protein at the surface of the cytoplasmic membrane and translocation across this membrane, the periplasmic space and the outer membr...
