Characterization of a macrophage-specific infectivity locus (milA) of Legionella pneumophila.

Infection and immunity - 1 Jan 2000

Harb O S, Abu Kwaik Y

Abstract excerpt

Legionella pneumophila has been shown to possess multiple genetic loci that play roles in its ability to survive within host cells. The mil (macrophage-specific infectivity loci) mutants of L. pneumophila exhibit a spectrum of defects in intracellular survival in and cytopathogenicity to macrophages and alveolar epithelial cells. This study characterizes one of the mil mutants (GB111). Intracellular growth of...
