Complete Genome Sequence and Comparative Genomics of Shigella flexneri Serotype 2a Strain 2457T

TL;DR: The complete genome sequence of Shigella flexneri serotype 2a strain 2457T (4,599,354 bp) was determined and it was found that the strain is distinctive in its large complement of insertion sequences, with several genomic rearrangements mediated by insertion sequences.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unipolar localization and atpase activity of icsa, a shigella flexneri protein involved in intracellular movement

TL;DR: IcsA, an S. flexneri protein involved in this movement, was purified and studied in vitro as mentioned in this paper, and the surface localization of IcsA on both extracellular and intracellular shigellae was unipolar.
Journal ArticleDOI

Shigella flexneri surface protein IcsA is sufficient to direct actin-based motility.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that stable expression of IcsA on the surface of Escherichia coli is sufficient to allow actin-dependent movement of E. coli in cytoplasmic extracts, at rates comparable to the movement of S. flexneri in infected cells.
