<i>Vibrio cholerae</i> pathogenicity island 2 encodes two distinct types of restriction systems

2024-04-04

Abstract excerpt

In response to predation by bacteriophages and invasion by other mobile genetic elements such as plasmids, bacteria have evolved specialised defence systems that are often clustered together on genomic islands. The O1 El Tor strains of Vibrio cholerae responsible for the ongoing seventh cholera pandemic (7PET) contain a characteristic set of genomic islands involved in host colonisation and disease, many of which...
