Blowing epithelial cell bubbles with GumB: ShlA-family pore-forming toxins induce blebbing and rapid cellular death in corneal epithelial cells

Medical devices, such as contact lenses, bring bacteria in direct contact with human cells. Consequences of these host-pathogen interactions include the alteration of mammalian cell surface architecture and induction of cellular death that renders tissues more susceptible to infection. Gram-negative...
