Molecular Evolutionary Analyses of <i>Shiga toxin type 2 subunit A</i> Gene in the Enterohemorrhagic <i>Escherichia coli</i> (EHEC)

Molecular Evolutionary Analyses of <i>Shiga toxin type 2 subunit A</i> Gene in the Enterohemorrhagic <i>Escherichia coli</i> (EHEC)

To better understand the molecular genetics of the <i>Shiga toxin type 2 subunit A</i> gene (<i>stx2A</i> gene), we collected many subtypes of <i>stx2A</i> genes and performed detailed molecular evolutionary analyses of the gene. To achieve the aim of the study, w...
