De Novo Design of High‐Affinity Miniprotein Binders Targeting Francisella Tularensis Virulence Factor

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 52, December 22, 2025.
Hybrid 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.

Early Diagnosis of Tularemia by Flow Cytometry, Czech Republic, 2003–2015

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
We retrospectively assessed the utility of a flow cytometry–based test quantifying the percentage of CD3+ T cells with the CD4–/CD8– phenotype for predicting tularemia diagnoses in 64 probable and confirmed tularemia patients treated during 2003–2015 and

Tularemia in the world

open access: yesИнфекция и иммунитет, 2021
Here we review the data on the global spread of tularemia — a natural focal, especially dangerous human and animal infection caused by the bacterium Francisella tularensis. Strains of the most virulent F. tularensis subspecies tularensis circulate solely

Public Health Threat of New, Reemerging, and Neglected Zoonoses in the Industrialized World [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Microbiologic infections acquired from animals, known as zoonoses, pose a risk to public health. An estimated 60% of emerging human pathogens are zoonotic. Of these pathogens, >71% have wildlife origins.

Complicated Ulceroglandular Tularemia

open access: yesJournal of Global Infectious Diseases, 2022
A 52-year-old woman presented with a tender swelling in the right axilla, fever, a headache, nausea, and general weakness. On examination, she was found to have lymphangitis on the right arm and red papules on the 1st and 2nd fingers of the right hand. She had had prepared wild rabbit stew 5 days before disease onset.

Re-emergence of tularemia in Germany: Presence of Francisella tularensis in different rodent species in endemic areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background Tularemia re-emerged in Germany starting in 2004 (with 39 human cases from 2004 to 2007) after over 40 years of only sporadic human infections. The reasons for this rise in case numbers are unknown as is the possible reservoir of the etiologic
