ToxR is a bitopic membrane protein that controls virulence gene expression in Vibrio cholerae. Its cytoplasmic domain is homologous to the winged helix-turn-helix ('winged helix') DNA-binding/transcription activation domain found in a variety of prokaryotic and eukaryotic regulators, whereas its periplasmic domain is of ill-defined function. Several genes in V. cholerae are regulated by ToxR, b...

Vibrio cholerae is a water-borne pathogen responsible for causing a toxin-mediated profuse diarrhea in humans, leading to severe dehydration and death in unattended patients. With increasing reports of antibiotic resistance in V. cholerae, there is a need for alternate interventional strategies for controlling cholera. A potential new strategy for treating infectious diseases involves targeting...

In pathogenic Vibrio cholerae, at least 17 genes are co-ordinately regulated by ToxR. Most of these genes, including those that encode cholera toxin (CT), toxin co-regulated pilus (TCP), accessory colonization factor (ACF) and OmpU, are positively regulated. OmpT is the only identified protein under negative regulation of ToxR. To understand the molecular mechanism by which ToxR represses OmpT ...

The diarrheal disease cholera caused by Gram negative bacteria Vibrio cholerae is still a potential threat in many developing countries. Though the most common approach to combat cholera is use of oral rehydrating solution, it has many limitations. Search for small molecules as anti-cholera drug by high throughput screening were continued, which identified virstatin as a potential drug. ToxR pr...

The world's worst cholera epidemic in Haiti (2010) coerced to trace the origin and dissemination of the causative agent Vibrio cholerae O1 for proper management of cholera. Sequence analysis of the Haitian strain showed several variations in the genes encoding cholera toxin B subunit (ctxB); toxin-co-regulated pilus (tcpA), repeat in toxins (rtxA), quinolone resistance-determining region (QRDR)...

The Gram-negative, curved rod Vibrio cholerae causes the severe diarrhoeal disease cholera. The two major virulence factors produced by V. cholerae during infection are the cholera toxin (CT) and the toxin-coregulated pilus (TCP). Transcription of the genes encoding both CT and the components of the TCP is directly activated by ToxT, a transcription factor in the AraC/XylS family. ToxT binds up...

This report examines the genetic basis for Salmonella typhimurium Q1 enterotoxin production. A 918-base-pair XbaI-HincII fragment of plasmid pJM17, composed of cholera toxin (CT) coding sequences (ctxAB), was used as a gene probe. With this probe, the S. typhimurium enterotoxin was identified on a 6.3-kilobase EcoRI-PstI fragment of chromosomal DNA from plasmidless strain Q1. We cloned this 6.3...

Cholera toxin, one of the main virulence factors of Vibrio cholerae, is encoded in the genome of CTXphi, a V. cholerae-specific lysogenic filamentous bacteriophage. Although the genes encoding cholera toxin, ctxAB, are known to have their own promoter, the toxin genes can also be transcribed from an upstream CTXphi promoter, PrstA. The V. cholerae SOS response to DNA damage induces the CTX prop...

In October 2010, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention received reports of cases of severe watery diarrhea in Haiti. The cause was confirmed to be toxigenic Vibrio cholerae, serogroup O1, serotype Ogawa, biotype El Tor. We characterized 122 isolates from Haiti and compared them with isolates from other countries. Antimicrobial drug susceptibility was tested by disk diffusion and bro...
