Evasion of IFN-γ signaling by Francisella novicida is dependent upon Francisella outer membrane protein C.

Francisella tularensis is a Gram-negative facultative intracellular bacterium and the causative agent of the lethal disease tularemia. An outer membrane protein (FTT0918) of F. tularensis subsp. tularensis has been identified as a virulence factor. We generated a F. novicida (F. tularensis subsp. no...
