Impact of Hfq on global gene expression and intracellular survival in Brucella melitensis.

Impact of Hfq on global gene expression and intracellular survival in Brucella melitensis.

Brucella melitensis is a facultative intracellular bacterium that replicates within macrophages. The ability of brucellae to survive and multiply in the hostile environment of host macrophages is essential to its virulence.
