Abstract excerpt
Brucella abortus is an alpha-2 proteobacteria with a type IV secretion system (T4SS) known as virB, which is necessary to gain virulence by building up a replicative vacuole associated with the endoplasmic reticulum of the host cell. A virB T4SS mutant of the B. abortus 2308 strain and its wild-type strain were grown in acid medium in order to obtain and analyze their proteomes, looking for putative proteins that...
