The Trw Type IV Secretion System of Bartonella Mediates Host-Specific Adhesion to Erythrocytes

Bacterial pathogens typically infect only a limited range of hosts; however, the genetic mechanisms governing host-specificity are poorly understood. The α-proteobacterial genus Bartonella comprises 21 species that cause host-specific intraerythrocytic bacteremia as hallmark of infection in their re...
