Feast or famine: the host–pathogen battle over amino acids
YJ Zhang, EJ Rubin - Cellular microbiology, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Intracellular bacterial pathogens often rely on their hosts for essential nutrients. Host cells, in
turn, attempt to limit nutrient availability, using starvation as a mechanism of innate immunity …
