Generic sample from Burkholderia multivorans CGD1
Burkholderia multivorans CGD1
Burkholderia CGD1 was isolated from a lung biopsy of a CGD (chronic granulomatous disease) patient. CGD1 induces a high proinflammatory response in infected cells in vitro and has the highest ability to attach and enter cells than any other isolate of BCC studied so far (e.g. ~70% cells infected by CGD1 versus ~8% cells infected by the environmental isolate ATCC 17616).  The CGD1 isolate killed mice at least 3 times more efficiently and also much faster than ATCC 17616.
