Besides having pYV virulence plasmid, highly pathogenic
Yersinia strains also possess iron-regulated genes [63].
There have been reports stating that Y. enterocolitica
serotype O:8 carries high pathogenicity island (HPI),
which synthesizes yersiniabactin [64,65]. In order to get
a better understanding of the pathogenicity of Y. enterocolitica
subspecies, we used PathoProT to visualize the
