Reevaluation of whether a Functional Agr-like Quorum-Sensing System Is Necessary for Production of Wild-Type Levels of Epsilon-Toxin by Clostridium perfringens Type D Strains

ABSTRACT Clostridium perfringens type B and D strains produce epsilon-toxin (ETX). Our 2011 mBio study (mBio 2:e00275-11, 2011, https://doi.org/10.1128/mBio.00275-11) reported that the Agr quorum-sensing (QS) system regulates ETX production by type D strain CN3718. However, subsequent studies have b...
