Heterogeneous Surface Expression of EspA Translocon Filaments by <i>Escherichia coli</i> O157:H7 Is Controlled at the Posttranscriptional Level
19 Sept 2003
Abstract excerpt
Type III secretion systems of enteric bacteria enable translocation of effector proteins into host cells. Secreted proteins of verotoxigenic Escherichia coli O157 strains include components of a translocation apparatus, EspA, -B, and -D, as well as "effectors" such as the translocated intimin receptor (Tir) and the mitochondrion-associated protein (Map). This research has investigated the regulation of LEE4...
