Legionella pneumophila is a water-borne pathogen, and thus survival in the aquatic environment is central to its transmission to humans. Hence, identifying genes required for its survival in water could help prevent Legionnaires’ disease outbreaks. In the present study, we investigate for the first ...

Bacterial competence is a genetically programmed process that is triggered as a response to environmental stimuli. DNA uptake from the extracellular milieu by competence requires the expression of a complex machinery composed of a competence pseudopilus and a DNA translocase. In L. pneumophila, it ...
