Reevaluating the <i>Fusobacterium</i> Virulence Factor Landscape

2019-01-29

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Fusobacteríum are Gram-negative, anaerobic, opportunistic pathogens involved in multiple diseases, including the oral pathogen Fusobacterium nucleatum being linked to the progression and severity of colorectal cancer. The global identification of virulence factors in Fusobacterium has been greatly hindered by a lack of properly assembled and annotated genomes. Using newly completed genomes fro...
