Role of Mce proteins in <i>Mycobacterium avium paratuberculosis</i> infection
2023-06-07
Abstract excerpt
Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) is the causative agent of Johne’s Disease, a chronic granulomatous enteritis of ruminants. MAP establishes an infection in the host via the small intestine. This requires the bacteria to adhere to and be internalised by cells of the intestinal tract.
