Listeria monocytogenes is an opportunistic pathogen that causes infections collectively termed listeriosis, which are related to the ingestion of food contaminated with these gram-positive rods. The pathogenicity of L. monocytogenes is detennined by the following virulence factors: listeriolysin O, protein ActA, two phospholipases C, internalins (InlA and InlB), protein CwhA and a metalloprotease. The bacterium is a model organism in studies on the pathogenesis of intracellular parasites. It is able to penetrate, multiply and propagate in various types of eukaryotic cells and is also able to overcome the three main barriers encountered in the host: the intestinal barrier, the blood-brain barrier and the placenta. Based on L. monocytogenes genome sequence analysis 133 surface proteins have been identified. In particular, the large number of proteins covalently bound to murein sets L. monocytogenes apart from other gram-positive bacteria. The ability of this pathogen to multiply in various environments as well as the possibility of its interaction with many kinds of eukaryotic cells is, in fact, made possible by the large number of surface proteins.
