The cultural fluid of Vibrio cholerae strains of serovar Ogawa, grown under the conditions of submerged cultivation, has been shown to contain a large amount of soluble O-antigen which sharply differs from all other concomitant components in its molecular weight. By enriching the commercial chemical cholera vaccine known as Choleragen Toxoid with purified Ogawa O-antigen a new preparation, consisting mainly of cholera toxoid and Ogawa and Inaba O-antigens and capable of producing pronounced immunity to V. cholerae of both serovars, has been obtained.

D002772 Cholera Toxin An ENTEROTOXIN from VIBRIO CHOLERAE. It consists of two major protomers, the heavy (H) or A subunit and the B protomer which consists of 5 light (L) or B subunits. The catalytic A subunit is proteolytically cleaved into fragments A1 and A2. The A1 fragment is a MONO(ADP-RIBOSE) TRANSFERASE. The B protomer binds cholera toxin to intestinal epithelial cells and facilitates the uptake of the A1 fragment. The A1 catalyzed transfer of ADP-RIBOSE to the alpha subunits of heterotrimeric G PROTEINS activates the production of CYCLIC AMP. Increased levels of cyclic AMP are thought to modulate release of fluid and electrolytes from intestinal crypt cells.
