The enterotoxin gene (<i>cpe</i>) of <i>Clostridium perfringens</i> can be chromosomal or plasmid‐borne

1 Feb 1995

Abstract excerpt

The location of the cpe gene, encoding the enterotoxin responsible for food poisoning in humans, has been studied in a series of enterotoxigenic Clostridium perfringens strains by means of pulsed field gel electrophoresis of genomic DNA. The cpe gene was found at the same chromosomal locus in strains associated with food poisoning in humans and was shown to be linked to a repetitive sequence, the HindIII repeat,...
