Physical mapping of hemolysin plasmid pCW2, which codes for virulence of a nephropathogenic Escherichia coli strain.
The hemolysin plasmid pCW2, which enhances the virulence of Escherichia coli, has been mapped. Comparison of the region coding for hemolysin with other hemolysin determinants reveals differences that could explain differences in the ability to confer virulence.
