Abstract excerpt

Legionella pneumophila is an opportunistic pathogen and the causative agent of Legionnaires' disease. Despite being exposed to many chemical compounds in its natural and man-made habitats (natural aquatic biotopes and man-made water systems), L. pneumophila is able to adapt and survive in these environments. The molecular mechanisms by which this bacterium detoxifies these chemicals remain poorly understood. In...
