The Trypanosome Flagellar Pocket Collar and Its Ring Forming Protein—TbBILBO1
Cells, 2016 Sub-species of Trypanosoma brucei are the causal agents of human African sleeping sickness and Nagana in domesticated livestock. These pathogens have developed an organelle-like compartment called the flagellar pocket (FP).

Pathogen disgust sensitivity: Individual differences in pathogen perception or pathogen avoidance?
Motivation and Emotion, 2021 The emotion disgust motivates the avoidance of pathogens and contaminants. Individuals differ in their tendency to experience disgust and this is reflected in pathogen disgust sensitivity. Yet, it remains unclear which differences in psychological processes are captured by pathogen disgust sensitivity. We tested two hypotheses about how the information

A multigene family encoding surface glycoproteins in Trypanosoma congolense
Microbial Cell, 2017 Trypanosoma congolense, the causative agent of the most important livestock disease in Africa, expresses specific surface proteins involved in its parasitic lifestyle. Unfortunately, the complete repertoire of such molecules is far from being deciphered.

Targeting Antibiotic Tolerance, Pathogen by Pathogen [PDF]
Cell, 2018 Antibiotic tolerance, the capacity of genetically susceptible bacteria to survive the lethal effects of antibiotic treatment, plays a critical and underappreciated role in the disease burden of bacterial infections. Here, we take a pathogen-by-pathogen approach to illustrate the clinical significance of antibiotic tolerance and discuss how the ...

Autophagy vitalizes the pathogenicity of pathogenic fungi [PDF]
Autophagy, 2012 Plant pathogenic fungi utilize a series of complex infection structures, in particular the appressorium, to gain entry to and colonize plant tissue. As a consequence of the accumulation of huge quantities of glycerol in the cell the appressorium generates immense intracellular turgor pressure allowing the penetration peg of the appressorium to ...

Modulation of chromatin structure by the FACT histone chaperone complex regulates HIV-1 integration
Retrovirology, 2017 Background Insertion of retroviral genome DNA occurs in the chromatin of the host cell. This step is modulated by chromatin structure as nucleosomes compaction was shown to prevent HIV-1 integration and chromatin remodeling has been reported to affect ...
