Identification and Characterization of Sporulation-Dependent Promoters Upstream of the Enterotoxin Gene ( cpe ) of Clostridium perfringens
1 Jan 1998
Abstract excerpt
Three promoter sites (P1, P2, and P3) responsible for the sporulation-associated synthesis of Clostridium perfringens enterotoxin, a common cause of food poisoning in humans and animals, were identified. Nested and internal deletions of the cpe promoter region were made to narrow down the location of promoter elements. To measure the effects of the deletions on the expression of cpe, translational fusions...
