The Effector TepP Mediates Recruitment and Activation of Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase on Early <named-content content-type="genus-species">Chlamydia trachomatis</named-content> Vacuoles
ABSTRACT Chlamydia trachomatis delivers multiple type 3 secreted effector proteins to host epithelial cells to manipulate cytoskeletal functions, membrane dynamics, and signaling pathways. TepP is the most abundant effector protein secreted early in infection, but its molecular function is poorly un...
