Abstract excerpt
Brucella abortus is a facultative intracellular bacteria that replicates within a macrophage without producing any classical virulence factors. It can become internalized to cells by zipper-like and/or swimming internalization mechanisms. However, the bacterial proteins involved in internalization remain unclear. To define these bacterial proteins, random insertion mutants of B. abortus were generated by the Tn5...
