Identification of the Vibrio cholerae type 4 prepilin peptidase required for cholera toxin secretion and pilus formation.

Molecular microbiology - 1 Sept 1998

Marsh J W, Taylor R K

Abstract excerpt

Cholera toxin secretion is dependent upon the extracellular protein secretion apparatus encoded by the eps gene locus of Vibrio cholerae. Although the eps gene locus encodes several type four prepilin-like proteins, the peptidase responsible for processing these proteins has not been identified. This report describes the identification of a prepilin peptidase from the V. cholerae genomic database by virtue of its...
