Little is known about the molecular bases underlying the virulence of diffusely adhering Escherichia coli (DAEC) harbouring the Afa/Dr family of adhesins. These adhesins recognize as receptors the...
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli Exploits EspA Filaments for Attachment to Salad Leaves▿
Shaw, Robert K., Berger, Cedric N., Feys, Bart, Knutton, Stuart, Pallen, Mark J., Frankel, Gad
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) strains are important food-borne pathogens that use a filamentous type III secretion system (fT3SS) for colonization of the gut epithelium. In this study we...
Subversion of actin dynamics by EspM effectors of attaching and effacing bacterial pathogens
Arbeloa, Ana, Bulgin, Richard R, MacKenzie, Georgina, Shaw, Robert K, Pallen, Mark J, Crepin, Valerie F, ...
Rho GTPases are common targets of bacterial toxins and type III secretion system effectors. IpgB1 and IpgB2 of Shigella and Map of enteropathogenic (EPEC) and enterohemorrhagic (EHEC) Escherichia...
Hemrajani, Cordula, Marches, Olivier, Wiles, Siouxsie, Girard, Francis, Dennis, Alison, Dziva, Francis, ...
The human pathogen enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7 colonizes human and animal gut via formation of attaching and effacing lesions. EHEC strains use a type III secretion system to...
The mechanisms used by enteropathogenic Escherichia coli to control filopodia dynamics
Berger, Cedric N, Crepin, Valerie F, Jepson, Mark A, Arbeloa, Ana, Frankel, Gad
Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) subverts actin dynamics in eukaryotic cells by injecting effector proteins via a type III secretion system. First, WxxxE effector Map triggers transient...
