A truncated lipoglycan from mycobacteria with altered immunological properties [PDF]

, 2010
Maintenance of cell-wall integrity in Mycobacterium tuberculosis is essential and is the target of several antitubercular drugs. For example, ethambutol targets arabinogalactan and lipoarabinomannan (LAM) biosynthesis through the inhibition of several ...

Receptor-mediated endocytosis of α-galactosidase A in human podocytes in Fabry disease. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Injury to the glomerular podocyte is a key mechanism in human glomerular disease and podocyte repair is an important therapeutic target. In Fabry disease, podocyte injury is caused by the intracellular accumulation of globotriaosylceramide.

Protein trafficking through the endosomal system prepares intracellular parasites for a home invasion [PDF]

, 2013
Toxoplasma (toxoplasmosis) and Plasmodium (malaria) use unique secretory organelles for migration, cell invasion, manipulation of host cell functions, and cell egress. In particular, the apical secretory micronemes and rhoptries of apicomplexan parasites
