Abstract:
:Pathogenic Yersinia express a number of strictly regulated, plasmid-encoded virulence determinants (Yops), some of which are important in enabling the pathogen to block phagocytosis. The events mediating antiphagocytosis and the regulation of this process are becoming increasingly well understood.
