Project description:Legionella pneumophila is a Gram-negative facultative intracellular human pathogen with a distinct biphasic lifestyle. One of its primary environmental hosts in the free-living amoeba Acanthamoeba castellanii and its infection by L. pneumophila mimics that seen in human macrophages. Here we present analysis of strand specific sequencing of the transcriptional response of L. pneumophila in broth growth and in infection of A. castellanii.
Project description:Legionella pneumophila cells were harvested during exponential growth (RP) and stationary growth (TP). VBNC cells were also anylzed. Protein subfractions were studied.
