Identification of the Perosamine Synthetase Gene of Brucella melitensis 16M and Involvement of Lipopolysaccharide O Side Chain in Brucella Survival in Mice and in Macrophages

Brucella organisms are facultative intracellular bacteria that may infect many species of animals as well as humans. The smooth lipopolysaccharide (S-LPS) has been reported to be an important virulence factor of these organisms, but the genetic basis of expression of the S-LPS O antigen has not yet...
