RAS and ROS—A Story of Pseudomonas Survival

Publication date: 10 May 2017

Author(s): Stacey L. Kolar, George Y. Liu
Some pathogens block generation of reactive oxygen species to evade neutrophil killing, but how that is accomplished is poorly understood. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Vareechon et al. (2017) describe ADP-ribosylation of Ras as a strategy to inhibit assembly of neutrophil NADPH oxidase.
