High impact information on lon

  • Taken together, the impaired ability of the lon disruption mutant to survive and grow in macrophages could be due to the enhanced susceptibility to the oxygen-dependent killing mechanism associated with respiratory burst and the low phagosomal pH [1].
  • Macrophage survival assays revealed that the lon disruption mutant could not survive or proliferate within murine macrophages [1].
