<i>Shigella flexneri</i> disruption of host cell-cell tension promotes intercellular spread
2019-10-02
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> During infection, a subset of bacterial pathogens invades into the eukaryotic cytosol and spreads between cells of an epithelial layer. This intercellular spread is essential for disease and requires actin-based motility leading to the formation of plasma membrane protrusions. Protrusions are engulfed by the adjacent cell in an active process requiring both bacterial and eukaryotic proteins. Here...
