Bacterial internalization is required to trigger NIK-dependent NF-κB activation in response to the bacterial type three secretion system.

Infection of human cells with Yersinia pseudotuberculosis expressing a functional type III secretion system (T3SS) leads to activation of host NF-κB. We show that the Yersinia T3SS activates distinct NF-κB pathways dependent upon bacterial subcellular localization. We found that wildtype Yersinia ab...
