Putative conjugative plasmids with <i>tcdB</i> and <i>cdtAB</i> genes in clinical <i>Clostridium difficile</i> strains from MLST clades C-I, 2 and 4

2019-11-26

Abstract excerpt

The major toxins of Clostridium difficile (TcdA, TcdB, CDT) are encoded chromosomally in nearly all known strains. Following up on a previous report, we found five new examples of a family of putative conjugative plasmids with tcdB and cdtAB in clinical C. difficile isolates from MLST Clades C-I, 2, and 4.
