Studies in phagosome maturation : modulation by both the host phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase p110alpha and the mycobacterial protein PE-PGRS62

These interactions result in the creation of a destructive, antimicrobial phagolysosome compartment. How this process is regulated is not entirely known, and intracellular pathogens s...
