Abstract excerpt
The bvg or vir locus positively regulates the expression of many Bordetella virulence-associated determinants (encoded by vag genes), including cell envelope proteins, in response to environmental stimuli. On the other hand, several genes named vrg genes are negatively controlled by the bvg regulon (Knapp and Mekalanos, 1988). Flagellin is encoded by a vrg gene, which is expressed when the principal virulence...
