Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli uses a type III secretion apparatus to deliver proteins essential for pathogenesis to the host epithelium. Several proteins have been detected in culture supernatants of the prototype EPEC strain E2348/69 and three of these, EspA, EspB, and EspD, use type III machinery for export. Here, we report the identification and characterization of CesD, a protein required for proper EspB...
