Survival of Tropheryma whipplei, the Agent of Whipple's Disease, Requires Phagosome Acidification
Ghigo, Eric, Capo, Christian, Aurouze, Marianne, Tung, Ching-Hsuan, Gorvel, Jean-Pierre, Raoult, Didier, ...
Tropheryma whipplei was established as the agent of Whipple's disease in 2000, but the mechanisms by which it survives within host cells are still unknown. We show here that T. whipplei survives...

The human opportunistic pathogen Serratia marcescens is a bacterium with a broad host range, and represents a growing problem for public health. Serratia marcescens kills Caenorhabditis elegans after...
Brucella coopts the small GTPase Sar1 for intracellular replication
Celli, Jean, Salcedo, Suzana P., Gorvel, Jean-Pierre
The pathogen Brucella abortus resides inside macrophages within a unique, replication-permissive organelle that is derived from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Although dependent on the Brucella type...
