Bulletin of the Veterinary Institute in Pulawy, 2012 Abstract The objective of the study was to determine genotypic profiles of Bordetella bronchiseptica (Bbr) strains, based on the occurrence of genes encoding virulence factors, such as flagella (fla), dermonecrotoxin (dnt), and exogenous ferric siderophore receptor (bfrZ), using PCR.

Understanding the Mechanism of Translocation of Adenylate Cyclase Toxin across Biological Membranes
Toxins, 2017 Adenylate cyclase toxin (ACT) is one of the principal virulence factors secreted by the whooping cough causative bacterium Bordetella pertussis, and it has a critical role in colonization of the respiratory tract and establishment of the disease.

[Immunobiologic activity of Bordetella pertussis strains defective in various virulence factors].
Zhurnal mikrobiologii, epidemiologii i immunobiologii, 1989 The immunobiological properties of mutant strains, selectively deprived of certain antigens (hemagglutinin, B. pertussis toxin, dermonecrotic toxin, hemolysin, adenylate cyclase), have been studied with the aim of finding out the relationship between the presence of certain antigens in microbial strains and their protective properties.

, 2018 Autotransporters (ATs) are an important family of proteins that are essential for the virulence of a variety of Gram-negative bacteria. The vast majority of ATs possess a classical right handed β-helical structure which facilitates the vectorial secretion of the protein. However, not all ATs possess this classical structure.
