Branched-chain fatty acids promote Listeria monocytogenes intracellular infection and virulence.

Infection and immunity - 1 Nov 2010

Sun Yvonne, O'Riordan Mary X D

Abstract excerpt

Anteiso-branched-chain fatty acids (BCFA) represent the dominant group of membrane fatty acids and have been established as crucial determinants in resistance against environmental stresses in Listeria monocytogenes, a facultative intracellular pathogen. Here, we investigate the role of anteiso-BCFA in L. monocytogenes virulence by using mutants deficient in branched-chain alpha-keto acid dehydrogenase (BKD), an...
