Cohabitation of Leishmania amazonensis and Coxiella burnetii TRENDS IN MICROBIOLOGY RABINOVITCH, M., Veras, P. S. 1996; 4 (4): 158-161

Abstract

Intracellular pathogens customize the composition and function of the vacuoles they occupy, and can arrest or distort vacuolar maturation. In doubly infected cells, vacuoles that contain two different parasites can be used to test for exclusionary mechanisms, for expression of vacuolar phenotypes that permit or restrict fusion, and for the survival of pathogens targeted to an unusual cellular compartment.
