Burkholderia cenocepacia transcriptome during the early contacts with giant plasma membrane vesicles derived from live bronchial epithelial cells

Abstract Burkholderia cenocepacia is known for its capacity of adherence and interaction with the host, causing severe opportunistic lung infections in cystic fibrosis patients. In this work we produced Giant Plasma Membrane Vesicles (GPMVs) from a bronchial epithelial cell line and validated their...
