Identification of genes required for secretion of the Francisella oxidative burst-inhibiting acid phosphatase AcpA

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Francisella tularensis is a Tier 1 bioterror threat and the intracellular pathogen responsible for tularemia in humans and animals. Upon entry into the host, Francisella uses multiple mechanisms to evade killing.

Molecular Investigation of Tularemia Outbreaks, Spain, 1997–2008 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Tularemia outbreaks occurred in northwestern Spain in 1997–1998 and 2007–2008 and affected >1,000 persons. We assessed isolates involved in these outbreaks by using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis with 2 restriction enzymes and multilocus variable ...

Border patrol gone awry: Lung NKT cell activation by Francisella tularensis exacerbates tularemia-like disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The respiratory mucosa is a major site for pathogen invasion and, hence, a site requiring constant immune surveillance. The type I, semi-invariant natural killer T (NKT) cells are enriched within the lung vasculature.
