A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

The microbiome extends host evolutionary potential
Nature Communications, 2021 The microbiome shapes many host traits, yet the biology of microbiomes challenges traditional evolutionary models. Here, we illustrate how integrating the microbiome into quantitative genetics can help untangle complexities of host-microbiome evolution ...

Cell biology at the host–microbe interface
Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2014 Talks at the “Cell Biology at the Host–Microbe Interface” Minisymposium highlighted mechanisms used by viral, bacterial, and eukaryotic pathogens to hijack host-cell functions and establish a replicative niche. Manipulation of membrane dynamics Nihal Altan-Bonnet (National Institutes of Health) described positive-sense RNA enteroviruses that ...

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only
