Attenuated virulence of a Francisella mutant lacking the lipid A 4'-phosphatase.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 6 Mar 2007

Abstract excerpt

Francisella tularensis causes tularemia, a highly contagious disease of animals and humans, but the virulence features of F. tularensis are poorly defined. F. tularensis and the related mouse pathogen Francisella novicida synthesize unusual lipid A molecules lacking the 4'-monophosphate group typ...
