Structure of the Potential Virulence Factor from Francisella tularensis Shows Unexpected Presence of the SHS2 Motif and Similarity to Other Bacterial Virulence Factors

2022-01-14

Abstract excerpt

Pathogenic bacteria attack their host by secreting virulence factors that in various ways interrupt host defenses and damage their cells. Functions of many virulence factors, even from well-studied pathogens, are still unknown. Francisella tularensis is a class A pathogen and a causative agent of tularemia, a disease that is lethal without proper treatment. Here we report the three-dimensional structure and prelim...
