SopE

Accession VIRO:0000384
DefinitionSopeE is a toxin utilized by Salmonella enterica. It is injected by the pathogen through a type III secretion system and exerts its toxic effect by inducing both cytoskeletal and nuclear responses by stimulating GDP/GTP nucleotide exchange in Rho family of small molecular weight GTP-binding proteins. It is also essential for bacterial entry into host cell
