Product Description

Inhibits virulence regulation in V. cholerae. Prevents expression of cholera toxin and the toxin coregulated pilus (TCP) by inhibiting the transcriptional regulator ToxT. Effectively protects infant mice against TCP-dependent V. cholerae intestinal colonization in vivo. Displays little toxicity towards mammalian cells (up to 2mM for Hep2 cells).
