Gram-Negative Bacterial Sensors for Eukaryotic Signal Molecules

Gram-Negative Bacterial Sensors for Eukaryotic Signal Molecules

Ample evidence exists showing that eukaryotic signal molecules synthesized and released by the host can activate the virulence of opportunistic pathogens. The sensitivity of prokaryotes to host signal molecules requires the presence of bacterial sensors. These prokaryotic sensors, or receptors, have...
