Characterizing the secretion and function of TcfA : a unique autotransporter and virulence factor in Bordetella pertussis

, 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.

BvgR is important for virulence-related phenotypes in Bordetella bronchiseptica

Bordetella bronchiseptica is a pathogenic bacterium that causes respiratory infections in mammals. Adhesins, toxins, and secretion systems necessary for infection are regulated by the two-component system BvgAS.

Bordetella pertussis pertactin knock-out strains reveal immunomodulatory properties of this virulence factor

, 2018
Whooping cough, caused by Bordetella pertussis, has resurged and presents a global health burden worldwide. B. pertussis strains unable to produce the acellular pertussis vaccine component pertactin (Prn), have been emerging and in some countries represent up to 95% of recent clinical isolates.
