Yersinia enterocolitica TyeA, an intracellular regulator of the type III machinery, is required for specific targeting of YopE, YopH, YopM, and YopN into the cytosol of eukaryotic cells.

Abstract excerpt

Pathogenic Yersinia species employ type III machines to target effector Yops into the cytosol of eukaryotic cells. Yersinia tyeA mutants are thought to be defective in the targeting of YopE and YopH without affecting the injection of YopM, YopN, YopO, YopP, and YopT into the cytosol of eukaryotic cells. One model suggests that TyeA may form a tether between YopN (LcrE) and YopD on the bacterial surface, a...
