Comparative proteomics analyses reveal the virB of B. melitensis affects expression of intracellular survival related proteins.
BACKGROUND: Brucella melitensis is a facultative, intracellular, pathogenic bacterium that replicates within macrophages. The type IV secretion system encoded by the virB operon (virB) is involved in Brucella intracellular survival. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms, especially the target...
