Molecular Characterization of the Fragilysin Pathogenicity Islet of Enterotoxigenic Bacteroides fragilis

Enterotoxigenic strains of Bacteroides fragilis produce an extracellular metalloprotease toxin (termed fragilysin) which is cytopathic to intestinal epithelial cells and induces fluid secretion and tissue damage in ligated intestinal loops. We report here that the fragilysin gene is contained within...
