type III secretion system
Cellular Microbiology: Pathogen-Host Cell Molecular InteractionsEspH Suppresses Erk by Spatial Segregation from CD81 Tetraspanin MicrodomainsEnteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) belongs to a group of enteric human pathogens known as attaching-and-effacing (A/E) pathogens, which utilize a type III secretion system (T3SS) to translocate a battery of effector proteins from their own cytoplasm into host intestinal epithelial cells. Here we identified EspH to be an effector that prompts the recruitment of...
