Spontaneous insertion of an IS1-like element into the virF gene is responsible for avirulence in opaque colonial variants of Shigella flexneri 2a.

Colonial variation of Shigella flexneri serotype 2a from the translucent (2457T) to the opaque form (2457O) occurs spontaneously once in 10(4) cell divisions, with concomitant loss of ipa gene expression and virulence. The appearance of 2457O was associated with the insertional inactivation of virF,...
