Real-time tracking of Yersinia pestis infection dynamics using a near-infrared fluorescent protein labeling system
ABSTRACT Live imaging is essential for elucidating dynamic infection processes. Here, we developed a near-infrared fluorescent protein (NIR-FP)-based labeling strategy that enables integrated visualization of bacterial behavior in both cellular and animal infection models. Using Yersinia pestis as a model pathogen, we...
