Regulation of virulence genes in Listeria
International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2001 As in all pathogenic bacteria, virulence of the facultative intracellular Listeria species is a multifactorial trait. The expression of the bacterial genes involved in the different steps of the infectious process--invasion, intracellular multiplication and spreading--is temporally and spatially controlled, thus ensuring the presence of the respective ...
