Abstract excerpt
Two Vibrio parahaemolyticus virulence genes, pirAvp and pirBvp, are known to encode a binary photorhabdus insect-related (Pir) toxin that causes acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) in shrimp. These genes are flanked with repeats of a mobile element (insertion sequence) in a large plasmid. This insertion sequence is closely (92%) related to the known insertion sequence ISVal1. The pirABvp genes and the...
