Proteomic comparison of epidemic Australian <i>Bordetella pertussis</i> biofilm cells
2024-02-20
Abstract excerpt
Bordetella pertussis causes whooping cough, a severe respiratory infectious disease. Studies have compared the currently dominant single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) cluster I (pertussis toxin promoter allele, ptxP3 ) and previously dominant SNP cluster II ( ptxP1 ) strains as planktonic cells. Since biofilm formation is linked with B. pertussis pathogenesis in vivo , this study compared the biofilm formation...
