Intra-Amoeba Multiplication Induces Chemotaxis and Biofilm Colonization and Formation for Legionella

Legionella pneumophila, a facultative intracellular bacterium, is the causative agent of legionellosis. In the environment this pathogenic bacterium colonizes the biofilms as well as amoebae, which provide a rich environment for the replication of Legionella. When seeded on pre-formed biofilms, L. p...
