| characterization of a vibrio alginolyticus strain, isolated from alaskan oysters, carrying a hemolysin gene similar to the thermostable direct hemolysin-related hemolysin gene (trh) of vibrio parahaemolyticus. | a vibrio strain isolated from alaskan oysters and classified by its biochemical characteristics as vibrio alginolyticus possessed a thermostable direct hemolysin-related hemolysin (trh) gene previously reported only in vibrio parahaemolyticus. this trh-like gene was cloned and sequenced and was 98% identical to the trh2 gene of v. parahaemolyticus. this gene seems to be functional since it was transcriptionally active in early-stationary-phase growing cells. to our knowledge, this is the first r ... | 2006 | 17056701 |
