BrnQ Branched-Chain Amino Acid Transporters Influence Toxin Production by, but Not Growth of, <i>Clostridium perfringens</i> Type A Strain ATCC3624

By producing alpha toxin (PLC) and perfringolysin O (PFO), <i>Clostridium perfringens</i> type A strains are the most common cause of traumatic gas gangrene. <i>C. perfringens</i> cannot synthesize branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), so BCAA transporters are essential for <i>C. perfringens</i> growt...
