Molecular Characterizations of Cytolethal Distending Toxin Produced by Providencia alcalifaciens Strains Isolated from Patients with Diarrhea

18 Jan 2012

Abstract excerpt

Cytolethal distending toxins (CDTs), which block eukaryotic cell proliferation by acting as inhibitory cyclomodulins, are produced by diverse groups of Gram-negative bacteria. Active CDT is composed of three polypeptides--CdtA, CdtB, and CdtC--encoded by the genes cdtA, cdtB, and cdtC, respectively. We developed a PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay for the detection and differentiation of five...
