Bartonella type IV secretion effector BepC induces stress fiber formation through activation of GEF-H1.

Bartonella T4SS effector BepC was reported to mediate internalization of big Bartonella aggregates into host cells by modulating F-actin polymerization. After that, BepC was indicated to induce host cell fragmentation, an interesting cell phenotype that is characterized by failure of rear-end retrac...
