This bacterium, Anaplasma phagocytophilum (Ap), secretes a protein that binds with another protein produced by white blood cells, and that connection creates compartments that siphon host-cell nutrients to feed the bacteria, enabling their growth inside the white blood cells.

In the study, researchers reported that a protein called OmpA on the surface of Anaplasma phagocytophilum is important for invading host cells.
