Importance of amoebae as a tool to isolate amoeba-resisting microorganisms and for their ecology and evolution: the Chlamydia paradigm. [PDF]
Free-living amoebae are distributed worldwide and are frequently in contact with humans and animals. As cysts, they can survive in very harsh conditions and resist biocides and most disinfection procedures. Several microorganisms, called amoeba-resisting

Molecular regulation of virulence in Legionella pneumophila
Enabled by the Type IV Dot/Icm secretion system, the bacterial parasite Legionella pneumophila is evolutionarily adapted to dwell intracellularly in a multitude of eukaryotic hosts including humans. This review is focused on the regulatory mechanisms that govern the switch from bacterial replicative forms to environmentally resilient forms, in response

Evolution of plant ribosome-inactivating proteins [PDF]
This contribution presents an updated analysis of the evolution of ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) in plants. All evidence suggests that an ancestor of modern seed plants developed the RIP domain at least 300 million years ago.
