[ 1 ] - Prevalence of proline racemase/ hydroxyproline epimerase gene in human brucella isolates in Iran
Background: Human brucellosis is a zoonotic disease caused by Brucella melitensis, Brucella abortus, and Brucella suis. Brucella causes a chronic disease, which subverts the immune defense system of their hosts. In this study, the prevalence of an important Brucella virulence determinant, PrpA, which can modulate immune response, was determined in human isolates. Methods: Polymerase chain reac...
