Periodic Reporting for period 3 - EndoSubvert (Common mechanisms of host membrane trafficking subversion by intracellular pathogens to rupture bacterial containing vacuoles)

A common strategy of bacterial pathogens is active or passive uptake into host cells. There, they can localize within a bacterial containing vacuole (BCV) or access the host cytoplasm through BCV rupture. Hence, intracellular pathogens are often classified as vacuole-bound or...
