Novel cholera toxin variant and ToxT regulon in environmental <i>Vibrio mimicus</i> strains: potential resources for the evolution of <i>Vibrio cholerae</i> hybrid strains

2018-08-19

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Atypical El Tor strains of Vibrio cholerae O1 harboring variant ctxB genes of cholera toxin (CT) are gradually becoming a major cause of recent cholera epidemics. Vibrio mimicus occasionally contains virulence factors associated with cholera, e.g., CT, encoded by ctxAB on CTXФ genome; and TCP, the CTXФ-specific receptor. This study carried out extensive molecular characterization of CTXФ and...
