Type III Secretion Effectors with Arginine N-Glycosyltransferase Activity [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2020 Type III secretion systems are used by many Gram-negative bacterial pathogens to inject proteins, known as effectors, into the cytosol of host cells. These virulence factors interfere with a diverse array of host signal transduction pathways and cellular

The diverse N-glycosylation profiles of CD4+CD25- and CD4+CD25+ T cells in Hashimoto’s thyroiditis [PDF]
Frontiers in ImmunologyHashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) is one of the most common organ-specific autoimmune diseases, characterized by chronic thyroid gland inflammation. Helper T (Th) CD4+ cells, whose surface receptors are highly glycosylated, are involved in the pathomechanism ...

Effector Glycosyltransferases in Legionella [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2011 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
