EMBO J. 17:1998;2166-2176. This paper describes a filamentous organelle, reminiscent of the Salmonella invasomes, which appears at the surface of enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) upon cultivation in cell medium, and forms a link between the bacterium and the host cell membrane. These EspA-containing filaments are required for translocation of EPEC proteins into the host cell cytosol during the early phases of formation of attaching/effacing lesions.

Flagellar structures containing components of the Salmonella type III secretetion apparatus are visualized by electron microspcopy on the bacterial surface, and may represent the 'needle' that allows translocation of Salmonella effectors into host cell.

It is shown that the Shigella IpaA protein binds to vinculin and favors bacterial internalization by allowing the formation of a adhesion-like structure. Shigella internalization still occurrs at low levels in the absence of IpaA, suggesting the existence of different bacterial effectors that act in concert to promote bacterial entry.

Salmonella entry into epithelial cells was shown to require activation of the small GTPases Cdc42 and Rac. It is reported in this paper that SopE, a Salmonella protein that is translocated into the cytosol of host cells, can act as an exchange factor for Cdc42 and Rac, thus inducing cellular rufflings required for bacterial uptake. SopE, however, may not be sufficient to promote efficient bacterial uptake, and other Salmonella effectors are probably simultaneously modulating the entry process.

J Cell Biol. 143:1998;1003-1012. Interferon α and β were known to specifically inhibit Shigella but not Salmonella uptake by epithelial cells. This paper reports that Shigella require activation of the Src tyrosine kinase to induce cytoskeletal rearrangements during entry, and that interferon impairs Shigella-mediated Src activation. The data also implicate a dual role for Src, in the induction of Shigella-induced foci of actin polymerization, and also in the down-regulation of these foci.
