The enteric pathogen <i>Cryptosporidium parvum</i> exports proteins into the cytoplasm of the infected host cell
ABSTRACT The parasite Cryptosporidium is responsible for diarrheal disease in young children causing death, malnutrition, and growth delay. Cryptosporidium invades enterocytes where it develops in a unique intracellular niche. Infected cells exhibit profound changes in morphology, physiology and transcriptional activity. How the parasite effects these changes is poorly understood. We explored the localization of highly polymorphic proteins and found members of the C. parvum MEDLE protein family to be translocated into the cytoplasm of infected cells. All intracellular life stages engage in this export, which occurs after completion of invasion. Mutational studies defined an N-terminal host-targeting motif and demonstrated proteolytic processing at a specific leucine residue. Direct expression of MEDLE2 in mammalian cells triggered an ER stress response that was also observed during infection. Taken together, our studies reveal the presence of a Cryptosporidium secretion system capable of delivering pathogenesis factors into the infected enterocyte..
