Identification and characterization of the Pasteurella haemolytica leukotoxin [PDF]
Infection and Immunity, 1987 The identification and chromatographic characterization of the leukotoxin of Pasteurella haemolytica is described. The toxin, which has an apparent native molecular weight of greater than 400,000 as judged by gel exclusion chromatography, has a 105-kilodalton (105K) polypeptide as its major protein component.

PtrA is required for coordinate regulation of gene expression during phosphate stress in a marine Synechococcus [PDF]
, 2010 Previous microarray analyses have shown a key role for the two-component system PhoBR (SYNW0947, SYNW0948) in the regulation of P transport and metabolism in the marine cyanobacterium Synechococcus sp. WH8102. However, there is some evidence that another

Autoimmunity and Periodontitis
Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.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 ...

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.This review describes the features of grade C molar‐incisor pattern periodontitis and discusses the role of A. actinomycetemcomitans in its pathogenesis and why molars and incisors are preferably affected. Possible future studies on this aggressive disease in primary and permanent dentition and emerging omics techniques for diagnosis and management are
