Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The type III effector exoS gene and genes encoding type IV pili were previously identified through CGH analysis. We focused on these genes, and revealed that type IV pili had ability to cause increase in Ca2+ concentration of epithelial cells through binding to Ca2+ regulator CAMLG, and it was also found that ExoS had ability to cause necrosis of human epithelial cells through binding to host factor KIF7.
