Characterization of a virulence-modifying protein of Leptospira interrogans identified by shotgun phage display

Characterization of a virulence-modifying protein of Leptospira interrogans identified by shotgun phage display

Pathogenic species of Leptospira are etiologic agents of leptospirosis, an emerging zoonotic disease of worldwide extent and endemic in tropical regions. The growing number of identified leptospiral species sheds light to their genetic diversity and unique virulence mechanisms, many of them still re...
