Abstract excerpt

A new mutation tox-2 defining the increased level of cholera exotoxin production by the strain Vibrio cholerae Dakka 35 isolated from nature has been mapped by conjugational crosses of donor and recipient strains differing by toxin production and serovar. The mutation has been localized on the ch...
