Functional Families

Overview of the Structural Clusters (SC) and Functional Families within this CATH Superfamily. Clusters with a representative structure are represented by a filled circle.

Superfamily: Rhodococcus equi virulence-associated protein

Rhodococcus equi is a multi-host pathogen that infects a range of animals and immune-compromised humans. Equine and porcine isolates harbour a virulence plasmid encoding a homologous family of virulence-associated proteins that allow the diversion of the normal processes of endosomal maturation to enable bacterial survival and proliferation in alveolar macrophagesPMID:25005079,PMID:25746683,PMID:25084333. Functional characterisation of members of this superfamily is still in the process of being elucidated.
