Tracheal colonization factor: a Bordetella pertussis secreted virulence determinant

Summary We report here the identification of a virulence‐associated factor, Tcf, (tracheal colonization factor), produced by strains of Bordetella pertussis but not Bordetella parapertussis or Bordetella bronchiseptica. This protein is encoded by the tcfA gene. When a strain of B. pertussis 18323 la...
