Functional Activity of Antibodies Directed towards Flagellin Proteins of Non-Typhoidal Salmonella. [PDF]
Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) serovars Typhimurium and Enteritidis are major causes of invasive bacterial infections in children under 5 years old in sub-Saharan Africa, with case fatality rates of ~20%.

Summary Alternative splicing is essential for plants, enabling a single gene to produce multiple transcript variants to boost functional diversity and fine‐tune responses to environmental and developmental cues. Arabidopsis thaliana At‐RS31, a plant‐specific splicing factor in the Serine/Arginine‐rich (SR) protein family, responds to light and the ...

Role of Toll-Like Receptors in the interplay between pathogen and damage associated molecular patterns [PDF]
Various theoretical studies have been carried out to infer relevant protein-protein interactions among pathogens and their hosts. Such studies are generally based on preferential attachment of bacteria / virus to their human receptor homologs. We have analyzed 17 pathogenic species mainly belonging to bacterial and viral pathogenic classes, with the ...

The Arabidopsis Malectin-Like/LRR-RLK IOS1 is Critical for BAK1-Dependent and BAK1-Independent Pattern-Triggered Immunity [PDF]
Plasma membrane-localized pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as FLAGELLIN SENSING2 (FLS2), EF-TU RECEPTOR (EFR) and CHITIN ELICITOR RECEPTOR KINASE 1 (CERK1) recognize microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs) to activate pattern-triggered ...

Summary Since 2019, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2), the virus causing COVID‐19, has been spreading and mutating globally despite the expedited approval of many commercial vaccines. Therefore, developing safe, effective and affordable vaccines remains essential to meet the global demand, particularly in developing countries.

Type IV Pili Can Mediate Bacterial Motility within Epithelial Cells. [PDF]
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is among bacterial pathogens capable of twitching motility, a form of surface-associated movement dependent on type IV pili (T4P). Previously, we showed that T4P and twitching were required for P.

Crystal structure of Bacillus cereus flagellin and structure-guided fusion-protein designs
Flagellin is a major component of the flagellar filament. Flagellin also functions as a specific ligand that stimulates innate immunity through direct interaction with Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) in the host.

A plant viral effector subverts FER‐RALF1 module‐mediated intracellular immunity
Summary The receptor‐like kinase FERONIA (FER) is a prominent member of the Catharanthus roseus RLK1 (CrRLK1L) family, functioning as a modulator of immune receptor kinase complex formation in response to rapid alkalinization factors (RALFs). Typically, FER recognizes mature extracellular RALFs to combat bacterial and fungal infections.
