Abstract excerpt
Legionella pneumophila mutants specifically defective for intracellular replication were isolated using an intracellular thymineless death enrichment strategy. Mutants belonging to two distinct phenotypic classes were unable to grow in macrophage-like cultured cells. One class of mutants was defective for both inhibition of phagosome-lysosome fusion and association of host cell organelles with bacteria-containing...
