The characterization of the lipoprotein VacJ in Burkholderia pseudomallei and Burkholderia thailandensis

2014-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Burkholderia pseudomallei, the causative agent of melioidosis, has evolved multiple strategies to facilitate survival in the environment and can cause serious disease in the human host. The lipoprotein BPSL3147 (VacJ) was previously shown to be important in the growth and survival of B. pseudomallei in an in vivo mouse model and a VacJ transposon mutant was highly attenuated. This work has focused on elucidating t...
