Lipopolysaccharide-mediated resistance to host antimicrobial peptides and hemocyte-derived reactive-oxygen species are the major <i>Providencia alcalifaciens</i> virulence factors in <i>Drosophila melanogaster</i>

2022-05-17

Abstract excerpt

Bacteria from the genus Providencia are ubiquitous Gram-negative opportunistic pathogens, causing “travelers’ diarrhea”, urinary tract, and other nosocomial infections in humans. Some Providencia strains have also been isolated as natural pathogens of Drosophila melanogaster . Despite clinical relevance and extensive use in Drosophila immunity research, little is known about Providencia virulence mechanisms a...
