Focal targeting by human β-defensin 2 disrupts localized virulence factor assembly sites in Enterococcus faecalis

Virulence factor secretion and assembly occurs at spatially restricted foci in some Gram-positive bacteria. Given the essentiality of the general secretion pathway in bacteria and the contribution of virulence factors to disease progression, the foci that coordinate these processes are attractive an...
