Detection of the babA2 adhesin gene in Helicobacter pylori clinical isolates and correlation with upper gastrointestinal diseases [PDF]
Anais da Academia Brasileira de CiênciasHelicobacter pylori is an oncobacteria that infects more than half of the world’s population. Adhesins are virulence factors that are essential for the microorganism to bind to the gastric mucosa, such as the BabA adhesion protein, which is associated ...

Antimicrobial Activity and Mechanisms of Punicalagin against Vibrio parahaemolyticus
FoodsThis study sought to explore the antimicrobial activity of punicalagin against V. parahaemolyticus and its potential modes of action. V. parahaemolyticus ATCC 17802 and RIMD 2210633Sm were exposed to punicalagin, and the energy production, membrane ...

Evolutionary behaviour of bacterial prion-like proteins.
PLoS ONE, 2019 Prions in eukaryotes have been linked to diseases, evolutionary capacitance, large-scale genetic control and long-term memory formation. In bacteria, constructed prion-forming proteins have been described, such as the prion-forming protein recently ...

The protein network of bacterial motility
Molecular Systems Biology, 2007 Motility is achieved in most bacterial species by the flagellar apparatus. It consists of dozens of different proteins with thousands of individual subunits. The published literature about bacterial chemotaxis and flagella documented 51 protein-protein interactions (PPIs) so far. We have screened whole genome two-hybrid arrays of Treponema pallidum and

Bacterial Signal Peptides- Navigating the Journey of Proteins
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 In 1971, Blobel proposed the first statement of the Signal Hypothesis which suggested that proteins have amino-terminal sequences that dictate their export and localization in the cell.

Translocation of bacterial proteins?an overview
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Cell Research, 2004 Recent progress in the understanding of the nature of the extraordinary variety of protein translocation systems, mainly in Gram negative bacteria, is reviewed. This takes us from the insertion of proteins into the inner membrane via the sophisticated Sec apparatus, the lethal injection of Type III proteins into host cells and on to the beautiful ...

Toxinome—the bacterial protein toxin database
mBio, 2023 ABSTRACT Protein toxins are key molecular weapons in biology that are used to attack neighboring cells. Bacteria use protein toxins to kill or inhibit the growth of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells using various modes of action that target essential cellular components.
