Distinct Roles for CdtA and CdtC during Intoxication by Cytolethal Distending Toxins
Cytolethal distending toxins (CDTs) are heterotrimeric protein exotoxins produced by a diverse array of Gram-negative pathogens. The enzymatic subunit, CdtB, possesses DNase and phosphatidylinositol 3-4-5 trisphosphate phosphatase activities that induce host cell cycle arrest, cellular distension and apoptosis.

Cytolethal distending toxins and activation of DNA damage-dependent checkpoint responses
Cytolethal distending toxins (CDTs) are unique among bacterial protein toxins in their ability to cause DNA damage, due to their functional similarity to the mammalian deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I). The cellular response to CDT intoxication is characterised by activation of DNA damage-induced checkpoint responses, and the final outcome is cell type ...

Campylobacter jejuni infection impacts host-derived miRNAs targeting bacterial and host genes
The intestinal microbiota has been shown to influence host-derived microRNAs (miRNAs), small regulatory RNAs involved in host-pathogen interactions. However, the specific role of individual bacterial species in modulating host extracellular vesicles (EV)-
