Abstract excerpt
Bacterial invasion, like the process of phagocytosis, involves extensive and localized protrusion of the host cell plasma membrane. To examine the molecular mechanisms of the membrane remodeling that accompanies bacterial invasion, soluble NSF attachment protein receptor (SNARE)-mediated membrane traffic was studied in cultured cells during infection by Salmonella typhimurium. A green fluorescent protein-tagged...
