Cholera toxin phage: structural and functional diversity between Vibrio cholerae biotypes

Cholera is a severe form of watery diarrhea caused by Vibrio cholerae toxigenic strains. Typically, the toxigenic variants of V. cholerae harbor a bacteriophage, cholera toxin phage, integrated in their genome. The ctxAB genes from the phage genome encode the cholera toxin, which is responsible for...
