Abstract
Our previous work on Brevibacillus laterosporus G4 had demonstrated that an extracellular protease BLG4 played a key role as a pathogenic factor in bacterial infection of nematodes. In this study, we developed an improved method for the immunofluorescent localization of protease BLG4 to directly visualize the bacterial infection process in a nematode host and demonstrate the involvement of the protease in penetrating nematode cuticles in vivo. This work supplies a new basic knowledge that elucidates the microbial infection processes in nematodes.
