The Power of Bacteria: the genomes of a number of bacterial pathogens have now been completely sequenced. How might the availability of this information affect the definition of virulence factors?

The Power of Bacteria The genomes of a number of bacterial pathogens have now been completely sequenced. How might the availability of this information affect the definition of virulence factors? Why are in vivo expression technologies continuing to turn up housekeeping genes rather than the “virulence genes” the researchers who developed these methods originally envisioned? … Read more
