Abstract
A previous study has shown that YopB of Yersinia spp, is essential for tran slocation of Yop effectors across the eucaryotic plasma membrane (M.-P. Sor y and G, R. Cornelis, Mol. Microbiol. 14:583-594, 1994). Hows, er, this rol e was recently challenged (V. T. Lee and O. Schneewind, Mol. Microbiol. 31: 1619-1629, 1999), Using protease protection and digitonin extraction, me re confirm that YopB of Yersinia enterocolitica is essential for the transloca tion of YopE into HeLA cell monolayers.
