Summary Introduction
To review:
The mechanism used by bacteria to determine the environment around them.
Introduction:
The pathogen that enters the host invades the part in which it multiplies. It will stop the immune system of the host to act against it, using various mechanisms. They use many pathways to deliver toxins into the cell. The pathogens are also able to sense the environment around them using a special system.
