Intranuclear niche: actin-tail mediated nuclear entry by intracellular pathogens

Hoi Ching Cheung, Patricia Reist Iscar, Miro Thorsten Wilhelm Plum, Marek Basler

This study shows that intracellular pathogens like Burkholderia thailandensis and Shigella flexneri can enter host nuclei via actin tail motility, forming a protective niche in mitotically active cells.

Regulation of Type VI secretion systems of Burkholderia thailandensis during transition to intracellular lifestyle

Hoi Ching Cheung, Daria Jacqueline Wüst, Miro Thorsten Wilhelm Plum…·Marek Basler

This study shows Burkholderia thailandensis switches from T6SS-1 to T6SS-5 during phagosomal maturation, controlled by the VirAG two-component system.
