Francisella is sensitive to insect antimicrobial peptides.

, 2013
Francisella tularensis causes the zoonotic disease tularemia. Arthropod vectors are important transmission routes for the disease, although it is not known how Francisella survives the efficient arthropod immune response.

Detection of Francisellaceae and the differentiation of main European F. tularensis ssp. holarctica strains (Clades) by new designed qPCR assays

BMC Microbiology
Background The zoonotic and highly infectious pathogen Francisella tularensis is the etiological agent of tularemia. Tularemia in humans is mainly caused by F. tularensis subspecies tularensis and holarctica, but Francisella species like F.

Immune evasion strategies utilized by Francisella tularensis

, 2013
Francisella tularensis is a highly pathogenic, gram-negative, facultative intracellular bacterium and the causative agent of tularemia. Francisella has evolved numerous mechanisms to evade host immune responses.

Diverse roles of low-molecular weight thiol GSH in Francisella’s virulence, location sensing and GSH-stealing from host

Current Research in Microbial Sciences
Low-molecular weight (LMW) thiols, encompassing peptides and small proteins with active cysteine residue(s), are important to bacteria as they are involved in a wide range of redox reactions.
