Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Coxiella burnetii is a highly virulent intracellular pathogen that causes acute and chronic Q fever in humans. The bacterium utilizes a Dot/Icm type IV secretion system (T4SS) to translocate over 100 effectors into host cells to facilitate biogenesis of Coxiella -containing vacuoles (CCVs), which are specialized lysosome-derived organelles that support bacterial replication. During replication...
