Abstract excerpt
In a previous study, a collection of 55 Legionella pneumophila mutants defective for macrophage killing was isolated by transposon mutagenesis. In this study, nine of these mutants that belong to the same DNA hybridization group (group 3) were characterized. A wild-type DNA fragment that covers t...
