"Capnocytophaga canimorsus" : discovery of a deglycosylation mechanism that links metabolism to pathogenesis [PDF]
, 2008 We show that C. canimorsus (Cc) can serve as a recipient for RP4 mediated conjugation but there is neither replication of broad host range plasmid vectors nor expression of commonly used E. coli markers in C. canimorsus.

Preferential Packing of Acidic Glycosidases and Proteases into
mBio, 2014 Outer membrane vesicles (OMV) are spherical membranous structures released from the outer membrane (OM) of Gram-negative bacteria. OMV have been proposed to play several different roles during both pathogenesis and symbiosis.
