Neisseria gonorrhoeae subverts formin-dependent actin polymerization to colonize human macrophages
S. S. Ivanov, R. Castore, M. L. Circu, A.-M. Dragoi
This study shows Neisseria gonorrhoeae invades macrophages via actin-dependent membrane invaginations, distinct from phagocytosis, and identifies FMNL3 as a key host factor in this process.
