Host-Adaptation of Francisella tularensis Alters the Bacterium's Surface-Carbohydrates to Hinder Effectors of Innate and Adaptive Immunity

TM Zarrella, A Singh, C Bitsaktsis, T Rahman, B Sahay… - PloS one, 2011 - journals.plos.org
Background The gram-negative bacterium Francisella tularensis survives in arthropods,
fresh water amoeba, and mammals with both intracellular and extracellular phases and
could reasonably be expected to express distinct phenotypes in these environments. The
presence of a capsule on this bacterium has been controversial with some groups finding
such a structure while other groups report that no capsule could be identified. Previously we
reported in vitro culture conditions for this bacterium which, in contrast to typical methods …
