Infection by Bacterial Pathogens Expressing Type III Secretion Decreases Luciferase Activity: Ramifications for Reporter Gene Studies

Pathogenic microbes influence gene regulation in eukaryotic hosts. Reporter gene studies can define the roles of promoter regulatory sequences. The effect of pathogenic bacteria on reporter genes has not been examined. The aim of this study was to identify which reporter genes are reliable in studie...
