The brucellae are alpha-Proteobacteria facultative intracellular parasites that cause an important zoonosis. These bacteria escape early detection by innate immunity, an ability associated to the absence of marked ... -
Fat-to-glucose interconversion by hydrodynamic transfer of two glyoxylate cycle enzyme genes
The glyoxylate cycle, which is well characterized in higher plants and some microorganisms but not in vertebrates, is able to bypass the citric acid cycle to achieve fat-to-carbohydrate interconversion. In this context, ... -
What have we learned from brucellosis in the mouse model?
