SIK2 orchestrates actin-dependent host response upon Salmonella infection

Year: 2021
Type: article
Abstract: Significance Through conducting quantitative proteomics upon Salmonella infection, we identified a SIK2 signaling network, implementing the kinase into a so far concealed biological function. Our data exposed SIK2 as a central orchestrator of an actin regulatory network, coordinating the stability of Salmonella -containing vacuole (SCV) and cellular actin assembly, in order to limit the acute phase of the infection. Most strikingly, SIK2 is not exclusively acting locally on actin assembly associated with the SCV but impacts the actin cytoskeleton architecture in its entirety upon Salmonella infection. Our work provides a mechanistic framework for how the actin cytoskeleton is regulated and how it helps to control an acute Salmonella infection.
