BACKGROUND Vibrio cholerae, the etiologic agent of cholera, is indigenous to aquatic environments. The V. cholerae genome consists of two chromosomes; the smallest of these harbors a large gene capture and excision system called the superintegron (SI), of ~120 kbp. The flexible nature of the SI that results from gene cassette capture, deletion and rearrangement is thought to make it a hotspot o...

Vibrio cholerae, the causative agent of cholera, is a bacterium autochthonous to the aquatic environment, and a serious public health threat. V. cholerae serogroup O1 is responsible for the previous two cholera pandemics, in which classical and El Tor biotypes were dominant in the sixth and the current seventh pandemics, respectively. Cholera researchers continually face newly emerging and reem...
Cholera toxin, one of the main virulence factors of Vibrio cholerae, is encoded in the genome of CTXphi, a V. cholerae-specific lysogenic filamentous bacteriophage. Although the genes encoding cholera toxin, ctxAB, are known to have their own promoter, the toxin genes can also be transcribed from an upstream CTXphi promoter, PrstA. The V. cholerae SOS response to DNA damage induces the CTX prop...
BACKGROUND Despite recent progress in understanding the molecular basis of Vibrio cholerae pathogenesis, there is relatively little knowledge of the factors that determine the variability in human susceptibility to V. cholerae infection. METHODS AND FINDINGS We performed an observational study of a cohort of household contacts of cholera patients in Bangladesh, and compared the baseline chara...
Vibrio cholerae Evades Neutrophil Extracellular Traps by the Activity of Two Extracellular Nucleases
The Gram negative bacterium Vibrio cholerae is the causative agent of the secretory diarrheal disease cholera, which has traditionally been classified as a noninflammatory disease. However, several recent reports suggest that a V. cholerae infection induces an inflammatory response in the gastrointestinal tract indicated by recruitment of innate immune cells and increase of inflammatory cytokin...
knowing the nucleotide sequence of the cholera toxin operon, we designed oligonucleotide primers for its-pcr amplification from local clinical isolates of v. cholerae. the resulting amplification product was cloned in a common puc18 vector. subsequently, a part of this operon encoding the cholera toxin bsubunit (ctb) was reamplified and cloned between the bamh1 and ecor1 sites of the same vecto...
Vibrio alginolyticus, Vibrio fluvialis, and Vibrio parahaemolyticus utilized heme and hemoglobin as iron sources and contained chromosomal DNA similar to several Vibrio cholerae heme iron utilization genes. A V. parahaemolyticus gene that performed the function of V. cholerae hutA was isolated. A portion of the tonB1 locus of V. parahaemolyticus was sequenced and found to encode proteins simila...
Vibrio cholerae, the etiologic agent of cholera, is autochthonous to various aquatic environments, but despite intensive efforts its ecology remains an enigma. Recently, it was suggested that copepods and chironomids, both considered as natural reservoirs of V. cholerae, are dispersed by migratory waterbirds, thus possibly distributing the bacteria between water bodies within and between contin...
background: the virulence of a pathogenic vibrio cholerae is dependent on a discrete set of genetic determinants. in this study, we determined the distribution of virulence determinants among the clinical and environmental isolates of v. cholerae. methods: the antibiotic resistance profiles of the isolates were determined using standard disk diffusion assay. pcr assay was performed to analyze t...
