Vibrio mimicus (Vm) haemagglutinins (HAs), such as an extracellular HA/protease (Vm-HA/protease) and a major outer membrane protein-HA (Vm-OMPHA), have been recognized as the putative adherence factors for the bacterium. However, the mechanism by whi

Vibrio vulnificus, an opportunistic human pathogen, can obtain iron from a variety of heme proteins. This process involves the digestion of heme proteins by an exoprotease to liberate protoheme (iron-protoporphyrin IX). In the present study, we isola

Distribution of virulence-associated genes in Vibrio mimicus was studied including the toxin genes ctxA, tdh, st and vmh and the genes necessary for regulation of toxin production, toxR, toxS, toxT, tcpA and tcpP. Approximately half of clinical V. mi

Vibrio vulnificus biotype 2, a primary eel pathogen, is also an opportunistic pathogen for humans. The strains in this biotype secrete a cytolysin into the culture medium. The cytolysin from the strain CDC B3547 (ATCC 33817), which was originally iso

A zinc metalloprotease secreted by Vibrio vulnificus, an opportunistic human pathogen causing septicemia and wound infection, stimulates exocytotic histamine release from rat mast cells. This protease consists of two functional domains: the N-termina

A total of 42 clinical strains of Vibrio mimicus were examined for the presence of virulence associated genes toxR, toxS, toxT, tcpP, ctx and tcpA by PCR assay. Almost all strains were shown to have the toxR gene, while the toxS gene was found in 27
