Oral community interactions of Filifactor alocis in vitro. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Filifactor alocis is a gram positive anaerobe that is emerging as an important periodontal pathogen. In the oral cavity F. alocis colonizes polymicrobial biofilm communities; however, little is known regarding the nature of the interactions between F ...

Components of purified Mfa1 fimbriae.
, 2015 (A-C) Mfa1 fimbriae purified from JI-1 (lane 1) and FMFA4 (lane 2) were examined by SDS-PAGE and stained with Coomassie brilliant blue R-250 (A), or analyzed by immunoblotting using anti-Mfa3 (B) and anti-Mfa5 (C). (D) The N-terminus of Mfa4. Amino acids

Structural and functional studies of Porphyromonas gingivalis fimbrial proteins
Journal of Oral Microbiology, 2017 Porphyromonas gingivalis expresses two forms of fimbriae, FimA and Mfa1. Each fimbria consists of five proteins; FimA-E and Mfa1-5. While the assembly of the type-1 fimbriae from Escherichia coli is well studied; the chaperone-usher pathway, very little ...

Cryptococcus gattii in AIDS Patients, Southern California
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005 Cryptococcus isolates from AIDS patients in southern California were characterized by molecular analyses. Pheromone MFα1 and MFa1 gene fragments were polymerase chain reaction–amplified with fluorescently labeled primers and analyzed by capillary ...

Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology, 2017 Fluoroacetate producing plants grow worldwide and it is believed they produce this toxic compound as a defence mechanism against grazing by herbivores. Ingestion by livestock often results in fatal poisonings, which causes significant economic problems ...

Mfa1+Pg up-regulate the expression of DC-SIGN in human MoDCs.
, 2015 A) DC-SIGN mRNA expression in P. gingivalis-infected MoDCs at 0.1, 1 and 10 MOIs. The figure shows the gene expression after 12 hours of Pg381 and mutant strains infections. The target gene (DC-SIGN) was normalized using the endogenous control GAPDH (ΔCt)
