What makes pathogens pathogenic [PDF]
Metazoans contain multiple complex microbial ecosystems in which the balance between host and microbe can be tipped from commensalism to pathogenicity. This transition is likely to depend both on the prevailing environmental conditions and on specific gene-gene interactions placed within the context of the entire ecosystem.

Targeting the Nucleosome Acidic Patch by Viral Proteins: Two Birds with One Stone?
The past decade illuminated the H2A-H2B acidic patch as a cornerstone for both nucleosome recognition and chromatin structure regulation. Higher-order folding of chromatin arrays is mediated by interactions of histone H4 tail with an adjacent nucleosome ...

Nutrient Deficiency Promotes the Entry of Helicobacter pylori Cells into Candida Yeast Cells
Helicobacter pylori, a Gram-negative bacterium, has as a natural niche the human gastric epithelium. This pathogen has been reported to enter into Candida yeast cells; however, factors triggering this endosymbiotic relationship remain unknown. The aim of

The ever increasing numbers of immunosuppressed individuals has led to a significant increase in the incidence of opportunistic infections, particularly those caused by fungi. The epidemiology of infections caused by the common fungal pathogens such as Candida albicans, Cryptococcus neoformans and Aspergillus fumigatus has been well documented. However,
