Cloned fragments of the plasmid ColV,I-K94 specifying virulence and serum resistance.

M M Binns, D L Davies, K G Hardy.   

Abstract

A cloned BamH1-generated fragment of ColV,I-K94 increased the virulence of Escherichia coli, causing an approximately 100-fold reduction in LD50 for chicks. A genetic determinant for resistance to the bactericidal effects of serum was mapped to a 5,300 base-pair sequence within the fragment. Neither colicin V nor immunity to colicin V affected the pathogenicity of E. coli for chicks.
