Role of Recipient Susceptibility Factors During Contact-Dependent Interbacterial Competition
Bacteria evolved multiple strategies to survive and develop optimal fitness in their ecological niche. They deployed protein secretion systems for robust and efficient delivery of antibacterial toxins into their target cells, therefore inhibiting their ...

An effector of the Irish potato famine pathogen antagonizes a host autophagy cargo receptor [PDF]
Plants use autophagy to safeguard against infectious diseases. However, how plant pathogens interfere with autophagy-related processes is unknown. Here, we show that PexRD54, an effector from the Irish potato famine pathogen Phytophthora infestans, binds

Bacterial effector-involved temporal and spatial regulation by hijack of the host ubiquitin pathway
Ubiquitination is one of the most conserved post-translational modifications of proteins, and is involved in essential eukaryotic cellular processes.

Apoplastic interactions between plants and plant root intruders
Numerous pathogenic or parasitic organisms attack plant roots to obtain nutrients, and the apoplast including the plant cell wall is where the plant cell meets such organisms.

Coxiella burnetii Blocks Intracellular Interleukin-17 Signaling in Macrophages [PDF]
Coxiella burnetii is an obligate intracellular bacterium and the etiological agent of Q fever. Successful host cell infection requires the Coxiella type IVB secretion system (T4BSS), which translocates bacterial effector proteins across the vacuole ...

Transcription factor-based biosensors enlightened by the analyte.
Whole cell biosensors (WCBs) have multiple applications for environmental monitoring, detecting a wide range of pollutants. WCBs depend critically on the sensitivity and specificity of the transcription factor (TF) used to detect the analyte.

Transcriptional landscape of epithelial and immune cell populations revealed through FACS-seq of healthy human skin. [PDF]
Human skin consists of multiple cell types, including epithelial, immune, and stromal cells. Transcriptomic analyses have previously been performed from bulk skin samples or from epithelial and immune cells expanded in cell culture.

Effector Glycosyltransferases in Legionella [PDF]
Legionella causes severe pneumonia in humans. The pathogen produces an array of effectors, which interfere with host cell functions. Among them are the glucosyltransferases Lgt1, Lgt2 and Lgt3 from L. pneumophila. Lgt1 and Lgt2 are produced predominately in the post-exponential phase of bacterial growth, while synthesis of Lgt3 is induced mainly in the

Brucella abortus, the causative agent of bovine brucellosis, invades and replicates within cells inside a membrane-bound compartment known as the Brucella containing vacuole (BCV). After trafficking along the endocytic and secretory pathways, BCVs mature
