BLACKSBURG, Virginia, Sept. 19 -- Virginia Tech issued the following news:
Virginia Tech researchers have learned how bacteria manipulate molecules to infect the host organism.
Daniel Capelluto and his research team have discovered the mechanism by which the bacterial pathogen Shigella flexneri, the causative agent of dysentery, manipulates molecular activity to assure its survival against its host's natural defenses. Their findings were recently published in Structure, . . .
