Abstract
We cloned the vipR genes from Salmonella paratyphi C, S. dublin, and C itrobacter freundii strains and compared them with the S. typhi sequen ce to clarify the genetic relationship of the ViaB regions of Vi-posit ive organisms. ViaB regions were divided into two groups based on thei r sequences, the Salmonella and C. freundii groups. The vipR coding se quences of the Salmonella group were identical. Southern blot hybridiz ation results using the full-length ViaB region as a probe support the se findings.
