Crystal structure of a novel guanine nucleotide exchange factor encoded by the scrub typhus pathogen <i>Orientia tsutsugamushi</i>
2020-06-04
Abstract excerpt
Rho family GTPases regulate an array of cellular processes and are often modulated by pathogens to promote infection. Here, we identify a cryptic guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) domain in the OtDUB protein encoded by the pathogenic bacterium Orientia tsutsugamushi . A proteomics-based OtDUB interaction screen identified numerous potential host interactors, including the Rho-GTPases Rac1 and Cdc42. We dis...
