Legionella pneumophila Replication Vacuoles Mature into Acidic, Endocytic Organelles
After ingestion by macrophages, Legionella pneumophila inhibits acidification and maturation of its phagosome. After a 6–10-h lag period, the bacteria replicate for 10–14 h until macrophage lysis releases dozens of progeny. To examine whether the growth phase of intracellular L. pneumophila determin...
