Journal ArticleDOI

Complete genome sequence of Clostridium perfringens, an anaerobic flesh-eater

TL;DR: The genome analysis proved an efficient method for finding four members of the two-component VirR/VirS regulon that coordinately regulates the pathogenicity of C. perfringens, and a total of five hyaluronidase genes that will also contribute to virulence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome Sequence of an M3 Strain of Streptococcus pyogenes Reveals a Large-Scale Genomic Rearrangement in Invasive Strains and New Insights into Phage Evolution

TL;DR: Observations indicate that streptococcal phages represent important plasticity regions in the GAS chromosome where recombination between homologous phage genes can occur and result not only in new phage derivatives, but also in large chromosomal rearrangements.
Journal ArticleDOI

The luxS gene is involved in cell-cell signalling for toxin production in Clostridium perfringens.

TL;DR: The results indicate that cell–cell signalling by AI‐2 plays an important role in the regulation of toxin production in C. perfringens.
Journal ArticleDOI

The virR gene, a member of a class of two-component response regulators, regulates the production of perfringolysin O, collagenase, and hemagglutinin in Clostridium perfringens.

TL;DR: A homology search for the deduced amino acid sequence revealed that ORF2 was homologous to a response regulator in a two-component signal transduction system, and it is suggested that the virR gene plays an important role in the pathogenicity of C. perfringens.
