YopB of Yersinia enterocolitica is essential for YopE translocation.

چکیده
A previous study has shown that YopB of Yersinia spp. is essential for translocation of Yop effectors across the eucaryotic plasma membrane (M.-P. Sory and G. R. Cornelis, Mol. Microbiol. 14:583--594, 1994). However, this role was recently challenged (V. T. Lee and O. Schneewind, Mol. Microbiol. 31:1619--1629, 1999). Using protease protection and digitonin extraction, we reconfirm that YopB of Yersinia enterocolitica is essential for the translocation of YopE into HeLa cell monolayers.

Identification of the YopE and YopH domains required for secretion and internalization into the cytosol of macrophages, using the cyaA gene fusion approach.
Pathogenic yersiniae secrete a set of antihost proteins, called Yops, by a type III secretion mechanism. Upon infection of cultured epithelial cells, extracellular Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Yersinia enterocolitica translocate cytotoxin YopE across the host cell plasma membrane. Several lines of evidence suggest that tyrosine phosphatase YopH follows the same pathway. We analyzed internali...
متن کاملRole of YopP in suppression of tumor necrosis factor alpha release by macrophages during Yersinia infection.
The Yersinia plasmid-encoded Yop virulon enables extracellular adhering bacteria to deliver toxic effector proteins inside their target cells. It includes a type III secretion system (Ysc), at least two translocator proteins (YopB, YopD), and a set of intracellular Yop effectors (YopE, YopH, YopO, YopM, and YopP). Infection of macrophages with a wild-type strain leads to low levels of tumor nec...
متن کاملIdentification of substrates and chaperone from the Yersinia enterocolitica 1B Ysa type III secretion system.
All pathogenic Yersinia enterocolitica strains carry the pYV plasmid encoding the Ysc-Yop type III secretion (TTS) system, which operates at 37 degrees C. In addition, biovar 1B Y. enterocolitica strains possess a second, chromosomally encoded, TTS system called Ysa, which operates, at least in vitro, under low-temperature and high-salt (LTHS) conditions. Six open reading frames, sycB, yspB, ys...
متن کاملYersinia Controls Type III Effector Delivery into Host Cells by Modulating Rho Activity
Yersinia pseudotuberculosis binds to beta1 integrin receptors, and uses the type III secretion proteins YopB and YopD to introduce pores and to translocate Yop effectors directly into host cells. Y. pseudotuberculosis lacking effectors that inhibit Rho GTPases, YopE and YopT, have high pore forming activity. Here, we present evidence that Y. pseudotuberculosis selectively modulates Rho activity...
متن کاملSerogroup-related escape of Yersinia enterocolitica YopE from degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway.
Pathogenic Yersinia spp. employ a type III protein secretion system that translocates several Yersinia outer proteins (Yops) into the host cell to modify the host immune response. One strategy of the infected host cell to resist the bacterial attack is degradation and inactivation of injected bacterial virulence proteins through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. The cytotoxin YopE is a known ta...
