About This Image

Membrane ruffles triggered by the Salmonella actin-binding protein SipC are enriched with phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate

Fluorescence micrograph of an NIH3T3 cell expressing the phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate reporter PLCδ-PH-GFP (green) after infection with Salmonella typhimurium engineered to deliver augmented levels of SipC (see Cain et al., e1000037). Cells are co-stained with Texas Red-conjugated phalloidin (red) and DAPI (blue) to visualize F-actin and cell nuclei and bacteria, respectively.
