Abstract
Listeria monocytogenes is a bacterial pathogen which invades and multiplies within non-professional phagocytes. Signaling cascades involved in cellular entry have been extensively analyzed, but the events leading to vacuolar escape remain less clear. In this chapter, we detail a microscopy FRET-based assay which allows quantitatively measuring L. monocytogenes infection and escape from its internalization vacuole, as well as a correlative light/electron microscopy method to investigate the morphological features of the vacuolar compartments containing L. monocytogenes.Entities:
