Yersinia Has a Tropism for B and T Cell Zones of Lymph Nodes That Is Independent of the Type III Secretion System

Pathogenic Yersinia have a pronounced tropism for lymphatic tissues and harbor a virulence plasmid that encodes a type III secretion system, pTTSS, that transports Yops into host cells. Yops are critical virulence factors that prevent phagocytosis by macrophages and neutrophils and Yersinia mutants...
