Abstract
- Research shows that the superantigen gene ypm, encoding Yersinia pseudotuberculosis-derived mitogen, is not associated with mobile genetic elements and inserts into the bacterial genome in an unstable locus on the chromosome. Data indicate that DNA deletion in this locus occurs with high frequency.
