In trans complementation of lethal factor reveal roles in colonization and dissemination in a murine mouse model. by David E Lowe, Jason Ya, Ian J Glomski

“…Decreases of the LF producing strains to 10% or 0.3% of the population led to increased host survival and decreased trans complementation of the LF mutants. A library with 10% LF producing clones could replicate and disseminate, but fewer clones disseminated and the mutant clones were less competitive than wild type. …”
