c‐Src/Lyn kinases activate <i>Helicobacter pylori</i> CagA through tyrosine phosphorylation of the EPIYA motifs
1 Feb 2002
Abstract excerpt
The human pathogen Helicobacter pylori colonizes the mucous layer of the stomach. During parasitic infection, freely swimming bacteria adhere to the gastric epithelial cells and trigger intracellular signalling pathways. This process requires the translocation of the effector protein CagA into the host cell through a specialized type IV secretion system encoded in the cag pathogenicity island. Following transfer,...
