DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2018.00291
Abstract: Vibrio parahaemolyticus, the leading causative agent of seafood-associated gastroenteritis, harbors two major virulence gene loci T3SS1 and Vp-PAI (T3SS2 and tdh2). ToxR is a virulence regulator of vibrios. Cell density-dependent transcriptional pattern of toxR and… read more here.
