Actin cytoskeleton. Missing link for intracellular bacterial motility?
Abstract
Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) associates with virulence factors on the surface of intracellular bacteria; by binding to profilin, VASP may help direct the actin assembly that appears to drive bacterial motility.
