Ehrlichia SLiM ligand mimetic activates Hedgehog signaling to engage a BCL-2 anti-apoptotic cellular program

2022-02-08

Abstract excerpt

Ehrlichia chaffeensis (E. chaffeensis) has evolved eukaryotic ligand mimicry to repurposes multiple cellular signaling pathways for immune evasion. In this investigation, we demonstrate that TRP120 has a novel repetitive s hort li ner m otif (SLiM) that activates the evolutionarily conserved Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway to inhibit apoptosis. In silico analysis revealed that TRP120 has sequence and functional...
