A distinct sortase SrtB anchors and processes a streptococcal adhesin AbpA with a novel structural property. [PDF]
, 2016 Surface display of proteins by sortases in Gram-positive bacteria is crucial for bacterial fitness and virulence. We found a unique gene locus encoding an amylase-binding adhesin AbpA and a sortase B in oral streptococci.

Brownian motion near a partial-slip boundary: A local probe of the no-slip condition [PDF]
, 2005 Motivated by experimental evidence of violations of the no-slip boundary condition for liquid flow in micron-scale geometries, we propose a simple, complementary experimental technique that has certain advantages over previous studies. Instead of relying

Deconstructing the Cell Wall [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1994 Any microorganism that attempts to colonize a plant must contend with the cell wall. One of the most conspicuous effects of microorganisms on plant cell walls is enzymic degradation. Our interpretation of the significance of this depends on our concept of the plant cell wall, which, however, is paradoxical.

Host carbon sources modulate cell wall architecture, drug resistance and virulence in a fungal pathogen [PDF]
, 2012 The survival of all microbes depends upon their ability to respond to environmental challenges. To establish infection, pathogens such as Candida albicans must mount effective stress responses to counter host defences while adapting to dynamic changes in

Microbiology Spectrum, 2019 ABSTRACT Dating back to the 1960s, initial studies on the staphylococcal cell wall were driven by the need to clarify the mode of action of the first antibiotics and the resistance mechanisms developed by the bacteria. During the following decades, the elucidation of the biosynthetic path and primary composition of staphylococcal cell walls ...

Ultrastructure of adhesion and movement of the tetraspores of Gelidium Lamour (Geldiaceae; Rhodophyta) [PDF]
, 2012 The outer part of the tetraspora cell wall in Gelidium crinale (Turner) J.V. Lamour. and G. spathulatum (Kutz.) Bornet is morphologically described in relation to the movements and displacement of these spores when they settle on a substratum.

Fission Yeast Cell Wall Analysis [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Protocols, 2017 The Schizosaccharomyces pombe cell wall is a rigid exoskeletal structure mainly composed of interlinked glucose polysaccharides and galactomannoproteins. It is essential for survival of the fission yeast, as it prevents cells from bursting from internal turgor pressure and protects them from mechanical injuries.

, 2008 This chapter covers our present knowledge of cell wall proteomics highlighting the distinctive features of cell walls and cell wall proteins in relation to problems encountered for protein extraction, separation and identification. It provides clues to design strategies for efficient cell wall proteomic studies.

In Planta Cell Wall Engineering: From Mutants to Artificial Cell Walls
Plant and Cell Physiology, 2021 AbstractTo mitigate the effects of global warming and to preserve the limited fossil fuel resources, an increased exploitation of plant-based materials and fuels is required, which would be one of the most important innovations related to sustainable development.
