mDia1 assembles a linear F-actin coat at membrane invaginations to drive Listeria monocytogenes cell-to-cell spreading

AS Dhanda, AW Vogl, F Ness, M Innocenti, JA Guttman - Mbio, 2021 - Am Soc Microbiol
Direct cell-to-cell spreading of Listeria monocytogenes requires the bacteria to induce actin-
based finger-like membrane protrusions in donor host cells that are endocytosed through …

Localization of host endocytic and actin‐associated proteins during Shigella flexneri intracellular motility and intercellular spreading

AS Dhanda, JA Guttman - The Anatomical Record, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
Abstract Shigella flexneri (S. flexneri), the causative agent of bacillary dysentery, uses an
effector‐mediated strategy to hijack host cells and cause disease. To propagate and spread …

Listeria monocytogenes hijacks CD147 to ensure proper membrane protrusion formation and efficient bacterial dissemination

AS Dhanda, KT Lulic, C Yu, RH Chiu… - Cellular and Molecular …, 2019 - Springer
Efficient cell-to-cell transfer of Listeria monocytogenes (L. monocytogenes) requires the
proper formation of actin-rich membrane protrusions. To date, only the host proteins ezrin …
