ABSTRACT

Apathogenic Shigella flexneri 5a2c mutant treated with furazolidone can infect eucaryotic cells. These bacteria contain no virulence genes responsible for Sh. flexneri invasion, which seems to be the cause of their apathogenicity. The capacity of bacteria to penetrate into eucaryotic cells correlates with the appearance of ECP 32 protease specifically cleaving actin.
