Tuning Functional Amyloid Formation Through Disulfide Engineering

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Many organisms produce “functional” amyloid fibers, which are stable protein polymers that serve many roles in cellular biology. Certain Enterobacteriaceae assemble functional amyloid fibers called curli that are the main protein component of the biofilm

Myxococcus CsgA, Drosophila Sniffer, and human HSD10 are cardiolipin phospholipases [PDF]

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2015
Myxococcus xanthus development requires CsgA, a member of the short-chain alcohol dehydrogenase (SCAD) family of proteins. We show that CsgA and SocA, a protein that can replace CsgA function in vivo, oxidize the 2′-OH glycerol moiety on cardiolipin and phosphatidylglycerol to produce diacylglycerol (DAG), dihydroxyacetone, and orthophosphate.

Developmental Switch From Elemental to Configural Processing of Odor Mixtures in Humans. [PDF]

open access: yesDev Psychobiol
ABSTRACT Human perceptual abilities evolve throughout development, particularly with regard to processing complex stimuli. While many studies have investigated age‐related changes in olfactory sensitivity, none have examined how developmental stages influence the perception of odor mixtures at the elemental and configural levels.

Effect of dsp mutations on the cell-to-cell transmission of CsgA in Myxococcus xanthus [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 1993
The dsp locus contains genes involved in the subunit synthesis and/or assembly of fibrils that radiate outward from the Myxococcus xanthus cell surface and attach to other cells. The csgA gene encodes an extracellular protein morphogen which is essential for fruiting body development.

PBP8 expressing CsgA-ɑIpaD can bind soluble IpaD.

open access: yes, 2022
ELISA demonstrated the ability of CsgA-αIpaD to bind soluble IpaD. PBP8 was adsorbed onto a well plate, followed by incubation with varying IpaD concentrations.

Dimeric and trimeric fusion proteins generated with fimbrial adhesins of uropathogenic Escherichia coli

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2016
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) are associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) is the main etiologic agent.

PBP8 expressing CsgA-ɑFla can induce REPEC aggregation.

open access: yes, 2022
Suspensions of PBP8 expressing CsgA-VHH were mixed with either REPEC (a) or REHEC (b) and allowed to settle overnight in conical 96-well plates. Aggregation was only observed when REPEC was mixed with CsgA-αFla-3 and -4. (TIFF)

Non-Conscious Effect of Food Odors on Children’s Food Choices Varies by Weight Status

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2017
ObjectiveFood cues are omnipresent in the daily environment and may influence eating behavior even non-consciously. An increased reactivity to food cues, such as food odors, has been shown to be correlated with obesity in children.
