Allele- and Tir-independent functions of intimin in diverse animal infection models
Upon binding to intestinal epithelial cells, enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC), enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC), and Citrobacter rodentium trigger formation of actin pedestals beneath bound bacteria. Pedestal formation has been associated with enhanced colonization, and requires intimin, an adhesin t...
