Difference between Cholera toxin and Virulence

Cholera toxin vs. Virulence

Cholera toxin (also known as choleragen and sometimes abbreviated to CTX, Ctx or CT) is protein complex secreted by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae. Virulence is a pathogen's or microbe's ability to infect or damage a host.

Similarities between Cholera toxin and Virulence

Cholera toxin and Virulence have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Bacteria, Endocytosis, Enzyme, Escherichia coli, Horizontal gene transfer.

Endocytosis

Endocytosis is a form of bulk transport in which a cell transports molecules (such as proteins) into the cell (endo- + cytosis) by engulfing them in an energy-using process.

Horizontal gene transfer

Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) or lateral gene transfer (LGT) is the movement of genetic material between unicellular and/or multicellular organisms other than by the ("vertical") transmission of DNA from parent to offspring.
