<i>Legionella pneumophila</i> CRISPR-Cas suggests recurrent encounters with <i>Gokushovirinae</i>

2021-03-09

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Legionella pneumophila is a ubiquitous freshwater pathogen and the causative agent of Legionnaires’ disease. This pathogen and its ability to cause disease is closely tied to its environmental encounters. From phagocytic protists, L. pneumophila has “learned” how to avoid predation and exploit conserved eukaryotic processes to establish an intracellular replicative niche. Legionnaires’ disease...
