Role for Gingipains in Porphyromonas gingivalis Traffic to Phagolysosomes and Survival in Human Aortic Endothelial Cells

Gingipains are cysteine proteinases that are responsible for the virulence of Porphyromonas gingivalis. Recent studies have shown that P. gingivalis is trapped within autophagic compartments of infected cells, where it promotes survival. In this study we investigated the role of gingipains in the in...
