Molecular structure of adhesin domains in Escherichia coli fimbriae
International Journal of Medical Microbiology, 2005 Crystal structures of FimH, PapG, GafD, and DraE fimbrial adhesin subunits or lectin domains have been resolved. These adhesins bind to different targets and are only distantly related in amino acid sequence. The overall structures of the fimbrial lectins, however, appear similar, suggesting that the fimbrial lectins have diverged from a common ...

Small, EarlyView.Cstalk, a giant fibrous protein, selectively partitions into the dextran‐rich phase in polyethylene glycol/dextran aqueous two‐phase systems, functioning as a recruiter for proteins of interest. This phase‐selective recruitment can be extended to fungal cell walls, enabling the targeted localization of enzymes and enhancing antifungal activity through ...

The Keystone‐Pathogen Hypothesis Updated: The Role of Porphyromonas gingivalis in Periodontitis
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.Porphyromonas gingivalis orchestrates a coordinated manipulation of immune and inflammatory responses in periodontal tissues which leads to the generation of a dysbiotic, subgingival biofilm community, and progression of periodontitis. The type 9 secretion system, lipid A modification, and the formation of outer membrane vesicles are important ...
