Regulatory characteristics of the Vibrio vulnificus rtxHCA operon encoding a MARTX toxin.

Journal of microbiology (Seoul, Korea) - 1 Oct 2012

Park Jinseo, Kim Seung Min, Jeong Hee Gon, Choi Sang Ho

Abstract excerpt

Vibrio vulnificus MARTX encoded by rtxA, an open reading frame of the rtxHCA operon, is essential for virulence in vitro and in mice. In this study, a primer extension analysis revealed that transcription of the rtxHCA operon begins at a single site, and is under the direction of a single promoter, P( rtxHCA ). P( rtxHCA ) activity appeared at the beginning of growth and reached a maximum in mid-exponential...
