PGLYRP4 Enhances Shigella flexneri Virulence by Promoting virF Transcription via the CpxA/R Two-Component System. [PDF]
MicrobiologyopenShigella can use the host's innate immune system to optimize the expression of its virulence factors. The PGLYRP4 protein, a member of the host's innate immune system, increases VirF expression in Shigella by stimulating the CpxA/R TCS, thereby enhancing the expression of the virulence system.
