The pertussis toxin liberation genes of Bordetella pertussis are transcriptionally linked to the pertussis toxin operon.

The DNA sequence of the pertussis toxin operon (ptx) of Bordetella pertussis predicts that transcription of the operon ends downstream from the ptxS3 gene at a possible stem-loop structure. Secretion of the assembled pertussis toxin into the culture medium required the expression of 8 genes arranged...
