Host-specific adaptation of Legionella pneumophila to single and multiple hosts

Anaísa B. Moreno, Kiran Paranjape, Martina Cederblom, Elisabeth Kay, Christian Dobre-Lereanu, Dan I. Andersson, Lionel Guy

This study identifies host-specific mutations in Legionella pneumophila through experimental evolution in two hosts, revealing adaptations in ribosomal proteins and LPS synthesis.

Fis family members synergistically control the virulence of Legionella pneumophila

Claire Andréa, Julie Bresson, Christophe Ginévra, Anne Vianney, Nathalie Baïlo, Annelise Chapalain, Laetitia Attaiech, Kévin Picq, Caroline Ranquet, William Nasser, Patricia Doublet, Elisabeth Kay

This study shows that three Fis proteins in L. pneumophila regulate virulence genes through distinct and cooperative mechanisms, rather than as redundant backups.
