Autophagy Receptor Tollip Facilitates Bacterial Autophagy by Recruiting Galectin-7 in Response to Group A Streptococcus Infection

Bacterial autophagy—a type of macroautophagy that is also termed xenophagy—selectively targets intracellular bacteria such as group A Streptococcus (GAS), a ubiquitous pathogen that causes numerous serious diseases, including pharyngitis, skin infections, and invasive life-threatening infections. Al...
