Effector-triggered post-translational modifications and their role in suppression of plant immunity

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2012
Plant-pathogen interactions feature complex signalling exchanges between host and microbes that ultimately determine association outcomes. Plants deploy Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs) to perceive Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPs ...

A working model for cytoplasmic assembly of H/ACA snoRNPs

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Dyskerin is the component of nuclear H/ACA ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) endowed with pseudouridine synthase catalytic activity. Two isoforms of human dyskerin have been characterized: the abundant Iso1, mainly nuclear, and the shorter Iso3, mainly cytoplasmic but occasionally imported into nuclei.

Bacterial effector-involved temporal and spatial regulation by hijack of the host ubiquitin pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2011
Ubiquitination is one of the most conserved post-translational modifications of proteins, and is involved in essential eukaryotic cellular processes.

Inhibition of the Peroxygenase Lytic Polysaccharide Monooxygenase by Carboxylic Acids and Amino Acids

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2022
Lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) are widely distributed in fungi, and catalyze the oxidative degradation of polysaccharides such as cellulose.

Improved prediction of fungal effector proteins from secretomes with EffectorP 2.0

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2018
Plant-pathogenic fungi secrete effector proteins to facilitate infection. We describe extensive improvements to EffectorP, the first machine learning classifier for fungal effector prediction. EffectorP 2.0 is now trained on a larger set of effectors and

Novel and unscrutinized immune entities of the zebrafish gut

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Understudied cells of the zebrafish immune system include bona fide immune cells and epithelial (‐derived) cells with immune functions. Research focusing on zebrafish cells which demonstrate similarities to mammalian immune cell counterparts may help us understand the pathologies in which they are implicated. Currently available and advanced tools make

Effector Pt9226 from Puccinia triticina Presents a Virulence Role in Wheat Line TcLr15

open access: yesMicroorganisms
Effectors are considered to be virulence factors secreted by pathogens, which play an important role during host-pathogen interactions. In this study, the candidate effector Pt9226 was cloned from genomic DNA of Puccinia triticina (Pt) pathotype THTT ...

Conceptual Approaches to Modulating Antibody Effector Functions and Circulation Half-Life

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Antibodies and Fc-fusion antibody-like proteins have become successful biologics developed for cancer treatment, passive immunity against infection, addiction, and autoimmune diseases.

Imeglimin attenuates liver fibrosis by inhibiting vesicular ATP release from hepatic stellate cells

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Imeglimin, at clinically relevant concentrations, inhibits vesicular ATP accumulation and release from hepatic stellate cells, thereby attenuating purinergic signaling and reducing fibrogenic activation. This mechanism reveals a newly identified antifibrotic action of imeglimin beyond glycemic control.

VopX, a novel Vibrio cholerae T3SS effector, modulates host actin dynamics

open access: yesmBio
Pathogenic Vibrio cholerae strains cause cholera using different mechanisms. O1 and O139 serogroup strains use the toxin-co-regulated pilus (TCP) and cholera toxin (CT) for intestinal colonization and to promote secretory diarrhea, while non-O1/non-O139 ...
