Abstract

A study of enterotoxin production in Clostridium perfringens revealed a DNA region extending upto 1.5 kilobases 5' to the structural gene cpc. This region contained DNA-binding sequences for the Bacillus subtilis transition state regulator Hpr. A putative ORF with a homology to an ORF in the Salmonella typhimurium IS200 insertion element was also found in the DNA region.
