Abstract excerpt
Heterologous expression of bacterial virulence factors in Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a feasible approach to study their molecular function. The authors have previously reported that the Salmonella typhimurium SigD protein, a phosphatidylinositol phosphatase involved in invasion of the host cell, inhibits yeast growth, presumably by depleting an essential pool of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate, and also...
