HilD, HilC, and RtsA Form Homodimers and Heterodimers To Regulate Expression of the Salmonella Pathogenicity Island I Type III Secretion System

Abstract excerpt

to both cause gastroenteritis and initiate serious systemic disease. The system responds to numerous environmental signals in the intestine, integrating this information via a complex regulatory network. Here, we show that the primary regulatory proteins in the network function as both homodimers and heterodimers, providing information regarding both regulation of virulence in this important pathogen and general...
