Frequency of Binary Toxin Genes among Clostridium difficile Strains That Do Not Produce Large Clostridial Toxins

Pathogenic strains of Clostridium difficile commonly produce two large clostridial toxins (LCTs), A and B, virulence factors responsible for C. difficile disease. Some strains have been reported to produce an additional toxin, a binary toxin designated CDT. Binary toxin has cytotoxic effects on cell...
