Molecular cloning of a genetic determinant for Congo red binding ability which is essential for the virulence of Shigella flexneri.

A DNA sequence of about 1.0 kilobase (kb) derived from a 230-kb (140-megadalton) plasmid in a fully virulent Shigella flexneri 2a strain, YSH6000, was cloned into Escherichia coli K-12 by selecting for the ability to bind Congo red (Pcr+ phenotype). It was mapped and localized within the SalI restri...
