A plasmid-mediated type III secretion system associated with invasiveness and diarrheagenicity of Providencia rustigianii

ABSTRACT We have recently described a clinical isolate of Providencia rustigianii strain JH-1 carrying the genes for cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) in a conjugative plasmid. A cdtB mutant of strain JH-1, which lost CDT activity, was still found to retain invasiveness and diarrheagenicity. The str...
