Molecule Role Virulence factor
Molecule Role Annotation MUTATION: A comparison of the VirB8 and VirB5 contents after induction of the B suis wild type and of virB5 and virB12 mutants further confirmed that the virB5 and virB12 genes belong to the same operon (Rouot et al., 2003).

Smooth strains of Brucella unable to replicate (ie, killed B suis or the avirulent mutant B suis virB5) exhibit delayed phagosome-lysosome fusion (Porte et al., 2003).

Polar mutations in the operon upstream of virB5 exert a greater effect on the expression of virB5 than they do on the expression of the downstream gene virB12. It indicates that in B abortus , regulatory elements other than the virB promoter may influence VirB12 protein levels (Sun et al., 2005).

Four independent mutants in virB5, virB9 or virB10 were highly attenuated in an in vitro infection model with human macrophages (O'Callaghan et al., 1999).
