pubmed:abstractText |
Coxiella burnetii, the Q fever agent, is an obligate intracellular bacterium and survival in phagolysosomes is an important virulence factor. The present study was performed to determine the relationship between its pathogenicity and genes related to its survival in macrophages, i.e. macrophage infectivity potentiator and Q fever agent regulatory sensor-like protein. The sequence similarity was more than 99% among Japanese, European and American strains, and no relationship was found between pathogenicity in guinea pigs and these genes.
