A genome-wide genetic screen identified targets for destabilizing the parasitophorous vacuole of <i>Chlamydia trachomatis</i>

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The bacterial pathogen Chlamydia trachomatis employs the effector CpoS to suppress a host defense response that aborts intracellular bacterial growth by inducing host cell death. While conducting a CRISPR knock-out screen for genes contributing to this response, we uncovered a mutant deficient for CpoS to display a markedly increased reliance on host cellular ceramide synthesis, compensating fo...
