Abstract excerpt
The Ser-Thr kinase Akt is activated in epithelial cells by Salmonella enterica serovar typhimurium. The bacterial effector SigD, which is translocated into host cells via the specialized type III secretion system, is essential for Akt activation. Here, we investigated the inositol phospholipid substrate preferences of SigD. Recombinant SigD preferentially dephosphorylated phosphatidylinositol 3,5-biphosphate and...
