Pathogenic Leptospira Evolved a Unique Gene Family Comprised of Ricin B-Like Lectin Domain-Containing Cytotoxins

Leptospirosis is a globally important neglected zoonotic disease. Previous data suggest that a family of virulence-modifying (VM) proteins (PF07598) is a distinctive feature of group I pathogenic Leptospira that evolved as important virulence determinants. Here, we show that one such VM protein, LA3...
