Soluble lytic transglycosylase SLT of Francisella novicida is involved in intracellular growth and immune suppression.

Soluble lytic transglycosylase SLT of Francisella novicida is involved in intracellular growth and immune suppression.

Francisella tularensis, a category-A bioterrorism agent causes tularemia. F. tularensis suppresses the immune response of host cells and intracellularly proliferates.
