Abstract
Clostridium difficile toxinotype XI strains do not produce toxins A (TcdA) or B (TcdB) but do possess a nonfunctional remnant of the pathogenicity locus (PaLoc), bearing part of the sequence for tcdA. This is the first report of a type with absent upstream terminal PaLoc sequences and major genetic rearrangements of the PaLoc region. Copyright (c) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.Entities:
