| Abstract: | A mutant lacking Vibrio cholerae lipoprotein A activity has been constructed in V. cholerae O139 which contains two copies of vlpA, by allelic exchange after inactivation via the insertion of kanamycin and tetracycline resistance gene cartridges. The vlpA-negative mutant has been assessed for virulence in the infant mouse cholera model. |
