Francisella tularensis Subspecies holarctica and Tularemia in Germany
Microorganisms, 2020 Tularemia is a zoonotic disease caused by Francisella tularensis a small, pleomorphic, facultative intracellular bacterium. In Europe, infections in animals and humans are caused mainly by Francisella tularensis subspecies holarctica.

Presence of Francisella tularensis subsp. holarctica DNA in the Aquatic Environment in France
Microorganisms, 2021 In 2018, the incidence of tularemia increased twofold in the west of France, with many pneumonic forms, suggesting environmental sources of infection. We investigated the presence of Francisellatularensis subsp.

Comparative Transcriptional Analyses of Francisella tularensis and Francisella novicida. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Francisella tularensis is composed of a number of subspecies with varied geographic distribution, host ranges, and virulence. In view of these marked differences, comparative functional genomics may elucidate some of the molecular mechanism(s) behind ...

Phenotypical and Genomic Characterization of the Mollusk Pathogen Francisella halioticida. [PDF]
MicrobiologyopenPhenotypic and genetic characterization of French isolates of Francisella halioticida and comparison with Canadian and Japanese strains. The study revealed similarities between FR22s and previous isolates but distinct differences with FR21. A major finding is the absence of the Francisella pathogenicity island in the less virulent isolate, FR22b ...

The pentose phosphate pathway constitutes a major metabolic hub in pathogenic Francisella
bioRxiv, 2021 Metabolic pathways are now considered as intrinsic virulence attributes of pathogenic bacteria and hence represent potential targets for anti-bacterial strategies.

De Novo Design of High-Affinity Miniprotein Binders Targeting Francisella Tularensis Virulence Factor. [PDF]
Angew Chem Int Ed EnglHybrid physics and deep‐learning enabled design methods identified miniprotein binders to Flpp3 (Francisella‐like lipoprotein), a key virulence factor from Francisella tularensis. Multiple candidates with nanomolar to picomolar binding affinities were obtained using yeast surface display screening and further experimental optimization.
