Molecular Characterization of the Escherichia coli Asymptomatic Bacteriuria Strain 83972: The Taming of a Pathogen [PDF]

, 2006
Escherichia coli is the most common organism associated with asymptomatic bacteriuria (ABU). In contrast to uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC), which causes symptomatic urinary tract infections (UTI), very little is known about the mechanisms by which these ...

S-layers at second glance? Altiarchaeal grappling hooks (hami) resemble archaeal S-layer proteins in structure and sequence

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2015
The uncultivated Ca. Altiarchaeum hamiconexum (formerly known as SM1 Euryarchaeon) carries highly specialized nano-grappling hooks (hami) on its cell surface. Until now little is known about the major protein forming these structured fibrous cell surface

Porcine milk fat globule membrane proteins that bind to F4ac fimbria of Escherichia coli

The FASEB Journal, 2012
Post‐weaning colibacillosis in pigs is caused by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) which is often controlled by antibiotic feed supplements with potential risk of generation of antibiotic resistant bacteria.

Novel roles for the AIDA adhesion from diarrheagenic Escherichia coli: Cell aggregation and biofilm formation [PDF]

, 2004
Diarrhea-causing Escherichia coli strains are responsible for numerous cases of gastrointestinal disease and constitute a serious health problem throughout the world. The ability to recognize and attach to host intestinal surfaces is an essential step in

Capsular polysaccharide inhibits adhesion of Bifidobacterium longum 105-A to enterocyte-like Caco-2 cells and phagocytosis by macrophages

Gut Pathogens, 2017
Background Bifidobacterium longum 105-A produces markedly high amounts of capsular polysaccharides (CPS) and exopolysaccharides (EPS) that should play distinct roles in bacterial–host interactions. To identify the biological function of B.

Unveiling a Novel Mechanism of Enhanced Secretion, Cargo Loading, and Accelerated Dynamics of Bacterial Extracellular Vesicles Following Antibiotic Exposure

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles
Antibiotic exposure substantially alters the production mechanisms of bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs), which serve as carriers for intercellular exchange of DNA, proteins, and nutrients, yet the underlying mechanisms remain elusive.

Modulation of porcine intestinal epitheliocytes immunetranscriptome response by Lactobacillus jensenii TL2937 [PDF]

, 2016
In order to evaluate probiotic strains applicable for the beneficial immunomodulation of the porcine gut (immunobiotics), we previously developed a porcine intestinal epitheliocyte cell line (PIE cells).

[Rapid purification of Bordetella pertussis fimbria 2, 3 proteins and their immunogenicities].

Mikrobiyoloji bulteni, 2007
Bordetella pertussis fimbria antigens play an important role in the adhesion to the cell surfaces, and induce the formation of protective antibodies in the host. The aim of this study was to purify the fimbria proteins by a rapid and easy method which involved Superdex 75 gel filtration chromatography, and to investigate their immunogenicity.
