Salmonella takes control: effector-driven manipulation of the hostEmma J McGhie
University of Cambridge, Department of Pathology, Tennis Court Road, Cambridge CB2 1QP, UK
Curr Opin Microbiol 12:117-24. 2009..This review focuses on the actions of the effectors on their host cell targets during each stage of Salmonella infection...
The purified Shigella IpaB and Salmonella SipB translocators share biochemical properties and membrane topologyPeter J Hume
University of Cambridge, Department of Pathology, Tennis Court Road, Cambridge, CB2 1QP, UK
Mol Microbiol 49:425-39. 2003....
A Salmonella SipB-derived polypeptide blocks the 'trigger' mechanism of bacterial entry into eukaryotic cellsRichard D Hayward
University of Cambridge, Department of Pathology, UK
Mol Microbiol 45:1715-27. 2002..These findings reveal a potential strategy to identify inhibitors of the 'trigger' mechanism underlying cell entry by these major invasive pathogens...
Control of actin turnover by a salmonella invasion proteinEmma J McGhie
Department of Pathology, University of Cambridge, Tennis Court Road, Cambridge CB2 1QP, United Kingdom
Mol Cell 13:497-510. 2004..These data suggest that SipA focuses host cytoskeletal reorganization by locally inhibiting both ADF/cofilin- and gelsolin-directed actin disassembly, while simultaneously stimulating pathogen-induced actin polymerization...
Cholesterol binding by the bacterial type III translocon is essential for virulence effector delivery into mammalian cellsRichard D Hayward
University of Cambridge, Department of Pathology, Tennis Court Road, Cambridge CB2 1QP, UK
Mol Microbiol 56:590-603. 2005..The data reveal that cholesterol-dependent association of the bacterial TTSS translocon with the target cell plasma membrane is essential for translocon activation and effector delivery into mammalian cells...
WAVE regulatory complex activation by cooperating GTPases Arf and Rac1Vassilis Koronakis
Department of Pathology, University of Cambridge, Tennis Court Road, Cambridge, CB21QP, United Kingdom
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 108:14449-54. 2011..This cooperativity between the two GTPases was sufficient to induce WAVE-dependent bead motility in cell extracts. Our findings suggest that Arf GTPases may be central components in WAVE signalling, acting directly, alongside Rac1...
Topology of the Salmonella invasion protein SipB in a model bilayerEmma J McGhie
Department of Pathology, Cambridge University, Tennis Court Road, Cambridge CB2 1QP, UK
Mol Microbiol 44:1309-21. 2002..The combined data suggest a topological model for membrane-inserted SipB...
