Autophagy Recognizes Intracellular Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium in Damaged Vacuoles

Abstract excerpt

Autophagy is responsible for the degradation of cytosolic components within eukaryotic cells. Interestingly, autophagy also appears to play a role in recognizing invading intracellular pathogens. Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (S. Typhimurium) is an intracellular pathogen that normally resides and replicates within the Salmonella-containing vacuole (SCV). However, during in vitro infection a population...
