The Host-Encoded Heme Regulated Inhibitor (HRI) Facilitates Virulence-Associated Activities of Bacterial Pathogens

Here we show that cells lacking the heme-regulated inhibitor (HRI) are highly resistant to infection by bacterial pathogens. By examining the infection process in wild-type and HRI null cells, we found that HRI is required for pathogens to execute their virulence-associated cellular activities. Spec...
