Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Component of the type III secretion system 1 (SPI-1 T3SS), also called injectisome, which is used to inject bacterial effector proteins into eukaryotic host cells (PubMed:23544147). SipB/SctE1 and SipC/SctB1 are inserted into the host membrane where they form a pore and allow the translocation of effector proteins into the cytosol of target cells (PubMed:23544147).
