Passage through Tetrahymena tropicalis triggers a rapid morphological differentiation in Legionella pneumophila.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Dec 2008

Abstract excerpt

The intracellular bacterial pathogen Legionella pneumophila follows a developmental cycle in which replicative forms (RFs) differentiate into infectious stationary-phase forms (SPFs) in vitro and in vivo into highly infectious mature intracellular forms (MIFs). The potential relationships between SPFs and MIFs remain uncharacterized. Previously we determined that L. pneumophila survives, but does not replicate,...
