Data provided by the National Library of Medicine- Quantification of Shigella IcsA required for bacterial actin polymerization.
- IcsA, a polarly localized autotransporter with an atypical signal peptide, uses the Sec apparatus for secretion, although the Sec apparatus is circumferentially distributed.
- Evidence for polar positional information independent of cell division and nucleoid occlusion.
- Regulation of IcsP, the outer membrane protease of the Shigella actin tail assembly protein IcsA, by virulence plasmid regulators VirF and VirB.
- Shigella interactions with the actin cytoskeleton in the absence of Ena/VASP family proteins.
- Branching sites and morphological abnormalities behave as ectopic poles in shape-defective Escherichia coli.
- Recent advances on the development of bacterial poles.
- Modulation of an outer membrane protease contributes to the virulence defect of Shigella flexneri strains carrying a mutation in the virK locus.
- Presence of multiple sites containing polar material in spherical Escherichia coli cells that lack MreB.
- Polar localization of the autotransporter family of large bacterial virulence proteins.
- Polar positional information in Escherichia coli spherical cells.
- Requirement for YaeT in the outer membrane assembly of autotransporter proteins.
- Bacterial actin assembly requires toca-1 to relieve N-wasp autoinhibition.
- Differential regulation by magnesium of the two MsbB paralogs of Shigella flexneri.
- Bacteriophage infection is targeted to cellular poles.
