Clonality, virulence and antimicrobial resistance of enteroaggregative Escherichia coli from Mirzapur, Bangladesh.

abstract：:The nucleolar accumulation of Semliki Forest Virus (SFV) C protein was examined as a function of intact microtubules, intact microfilaments and accessible intermediate filaments. The cytoskeletal components do not seem to play a role in directing C protein to the nucleolus but nucleolar accumulation is energy-dependen...
