Activity of Bacterial Effector Protein in Molecular Detail

UK - Many plant and animal pathogens deploy molecules called 'effector proteins' as part of their 'molecular arsenal' to help them to infect and colonise their hosts. New research has revelaed the structure of a bacterial effector molecule bound to its target protein in the host. This understanding could help us combat bacterial pathogens.
