Transposon mutagenesis reveals Pseudomonas cannabina pv. alisalensis optimizes its virulence factors for pathogenicity on different hosts [PDF]

PeerJ, 2019
Pseudomonas cannabina pv. alisalensis (Pcal), which causes bacterial blight disease of Brassicaceae, is an economically important pathogen worldwide. To identify Pcal genes involved in pathogenesis, we conducted a screen for 1,040 individual Pcal KB211 ...

Phosphorylation of CFP10 modulates Mycobacterium tuberculosis virulence

mBio, 2023
Virulence effectors secreted by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) help subvert host immune mechanisms and, therefore, are critical for establishing infection and pathogenesis. However, knowledge in terms of signaling mechanisms that modulate the secretion
