Abstract excerpt
ToxR and ToxS are integral membrane proteins that activate the transcription of virulence genes in Vibrio cholerae. ToxR can be separated into three different domains: an N-terminal cytoplasmic DNA binding domain, a central transmembrane domain, and a C-terminal periplasmic domain. ToxS is thought to enhance ToxR-mediated transcriptional activation through a periplasmic interaction. By P22 challenge phage...
