- Abstract
- Lipid raft-associated clathrin is essential for host-pathogen interactions during infection. Brucella abortus is an intracellular pathogen that circumvents host defenses, but little is known about the precise infection mechanisms that involve interaction with lipid raft-associated mediators. The aim of this study was to elucidate the clathrin-mediated phagocytic mechanisms of B. abortus. The clathrin dependence of B. abortus infection in HeLa cells was investigated using an infection assay and immunofluorescence microscopy. The redistribution of clathrin in the membrane and in phagosomes was investigated using sucrose gradient fractionation of lipid rafts and the isolation of B. abortus-containing vacuoles, respectively. Clathrin and dynamin were concentrated into lipid rafts during B. abortus infection, and the entry and intracellular survival of B. abortus within HeLa cells were abrogated by clathrin inhibition. Clathrin disruption decreased actin polymerization and the colocalization of B. abortus-containing vacuoles with clathrin and Rab5 but not lysosome-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP-1). Thus, our data demonstrate that clathrin plays a fundamental role in the entry and intracellular survival of B. abortus via interaction with lipid rafts and actin rearrangement. This process facilitates the early intracellular trafficking of B. abortus to safe replicative vacuoles.
