Glutathione Metabolism in B. quintana
Description:
Bartonella quintana is a fastidious, Gram-negative bacteria pathogen and the etiologic agent of the trench fever. This disease was first identified in the trenches of World War I. The bacterium lives in the gut of the body louse and is transmitted in their faeces. It enters the human body through damaged skin or through the conjunctiva of the eye. Promiscuity and dirty conditions in the trenches enable the spread of the disease. B. quintana is also responsible for a disease called Bacillary Angiomatosis and ...
