Abstract excerpt
Two different clonal groups of pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica strains, American and non-American, have been recognized. These are distinguished by a number of criteria, including their virulence in a murine model of infection. However, genetic analysis of virulence in American strains has been hampered due to the severe restriction of transformed or electroporated DNA. Thus, we cloned the yenIMR locus from...
