The Reduced Genome of the Francisella tularensis Live Vaccine Strain (LVS) Encodes Two Iron Acquisition Systems Essential for Optimal Growth and Virulence

Bacterial pathogens require multiple iron-specific acquisition systems for survival within the iron-limiting environment of the host. Francisella tularensis is a virulent intracellular pathogen that can replicate in multiple cell-types. To study the interrelationship of iron acquisition capability a...
