Three Streptococcus agalactiae (group B streptococci, GBS) immunoreactive proteins: enolase (47.4 kDa), inosine 5′-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH) (53 kDa) and molecular chaperone GroEL (57 kDa) were subjected to investigation.

A small heat‐shock protein (HSP16) previously reported as insect‐derived in Bemisia tabaci actually originates from a fungal species of the genus Wallemia. BLAST, genome survey and phylogenetic analyses support the fungal origin and clarify persistent misattribution in the literature.

GroEL/GroES Mechanism of Action and Formation of Complexes During Reaction Cycle: A Matter of Debate [PDF]
The bacterial chaperonin GroEL alongwith its cochaperonin GroES is the paradigmatic molecular chaperone machine for protein folding. Most bacterial proteins require the GroEL chaperonin for proper folding.

The Hydrophobic Nature of GroEL-Substrate Binding [PDF]
The molecular chaperone GroEl from Escherichia coli is a member of the highly conserved Hsp60 family of proteins that facilitates protein folding. A central question regarding the mechanism of GroEL-assisted refolding of proteins concerns its broad substrate specificity.

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis
In a microbe‐driven inflammatory environment, peptidyl‐arginine deiminase (PAD) enzymes from neutrophils and Porphyromonas gingivalis citrullinate both microbial and self‐antigens. B cell presentation of citrullinated or self‐mimicking epitopes activates T cells that assist B cells in antibody isotype switching, affinity maturation, epitope spreading ...

DnaK Functions as a Central Hub in the E. coli Chaperone Network
Cellular chaperone networks prevent potentially toxic protein aggregation and ensure proteome integrity. Here, we used Escherichia coli as a model to understand the organization of these networks, focusing on the cooperation of the DnaK system with the ...

Immunization using GroEL decreases Clostridium difficile intestinal colonization. [PDF]
Clostridium difficile is a pathogen which is responsible for diarrhea and colitis, particularly after treatment with antibiotics. Clinical signs are mainly due to two toxins, TcdA and TcdB.

Anaplasma sp. DNA was detected in 47.9% of free‐ranging coatis (Nasua nasua) sampled in Iguaçu National Park, southern Brazil. Molecular analyses revealed a genetically distinct Anaplasma lineage infecting coatis, differing from Anaplasma strains detected in associated tick populations.

The metabolic enzyme AdhE controls the virulence of Escherichia coli O157:H7 [PDF]
Classical studies have focused on the role that individual regulators play in controlling virulence gene expression. An emerging theme, however, is that bacterial metabolism also plays a key role in this process.
