Autoregulation of ToxR and Its Regulatory Actions on Major Virulence Gene Loci in Vibrio parahaemolyticus

Vibrio parahaemolyticus, the leading causative agent of seafood-associated gastroenteritis, harbors two major virulence gene loci T3SS1 and Vp-PAI (T3SS2 and tdh2). ToxR is a virulence regulator of vibrios. Cell density-dependent transcriptional pattern of toxR and its regulatory actions on T3SS1 an...
