Anaplasma phagocytophilum AFAP targets the host nucleolus and inhibits induced apoptosis
7 Jan 2025
Abstract excerpt
Anaplasma phagocytophilum, the etiologic agent of human granulocytic anaplasmosis (HGA), is an obligate intracellular Gram-negative bacterium. During infection, A. phagocytophilum transfers its type IV secretion system (T4SS) effector proteins into host cells to manipulate cellular processes. AFAP (an actin filament-associated Anaplasma phagocytophilum protein) was identified as a T4SS effector protein and found...
