Sophie Jarraud, Marie Alix Peyrat, Annick Lim, Anne Tristan, Michèle Bes, Christophe Mougel, Jerome Etienne, François Vandenesch, Marc Bonneville, and Gerard Lina. egc, A Highly Prevalent Operon of Enterotoxin Gene, Forms a Putative Nursery of Superantigens in Staphylococcus aureus. The Journal of Immunology 2001;166:669–677.

In January 2001, Orwin et al. (1) and Fitzgerald et al. (2) described new staphylococcal enterotoxins that they have designated SEK and SEL, respectively. Unfortunately, these toxins were different from the SEL and SEK encoded by the enterotoxin gene cluster (egc) that we have published in The Journal of Immunology (3). Thus, we propose to rename the entertoxins encoded by egc as follows to rule out possible confusion between these toxins:
