Abstract
Francisella tularensis is a highly infectious facultative intracellular bacterium causing the zoonotic disease tularemia.

The following review summarizes our current knowledge on the different steps of Francisella intramacrophagic life cycle and expands on the importance of nutrient acquisition.
