Sažetak
Campylobacter fetus subsp. venerealis (Cfv) is a pathogen which colonizes bovine genital tract, causing abortion and infertility. It is presumed that fic1 and fic2 genes, present in the genome of this subspecies, contribute to its virulence and host specificity, and that products of these genes, effector protein Fic1 and Fic2, function as "toxin-antitoxin system" within the bacterial cell. Above mentioned genes are investigated in this thesis, and their relation and function within Cfv is suggested.
