Commonality of Virulence-Promoting Function in Rhodococcus equi Virulence Associated Proteins (Vaps)
Rhodococcus equi is a Gram-positive facultative intracellular pathogen associated with life-threatening bronchopneumonial disease in foals. Key to R. equi’s intracellular survival in host macrophages is the production of virulence associated proteins (Vaps). Numerous vap genes are found on virulence...
