Many animal viruses exploit the endocytic machinery of their host cell for infection, and lipid rafts are often a site for entry, assembly and budding of microbial pathogens, as confirmed by biochemical approaches and microscopy evidence (Kovbasnjuk et al., 2001; Suomalainen, 2002; Lu et al., 2008) . Interestingly, it had already been demonstrated that Brucella abortus infection is related with PrP C (cellular PrP), one of the lipid raft-associated molecules on the plasma membrane of different cell types. In the macrophage-like cell line RAW 264.7, for example, LPS stimulation induces translocation of CD14, ERK-2 (extracellular-signalregulated kinase 2) and p38 to lipid rafts, but other proteins also involved in the LPS signalling response do not migrate within these microdomains (Triantafilou et al., 2007; Olsson and Sundler, 2006) . ./cache/cord-336929-2rnkotqy.txt ./txt/cord-336929-2rnkotqy.txt
