Organizing the interface—Plasma membrane architecture and receptor dynamics in virus‐cell interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...

The human gut microbiome across the life course

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Gene Discovery and Gene Expression in the Rice Blast Fungus, Magnaporthe grisea: Analysis of Expressed Sequence Tags

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2004
Over 28,000 expressed sequence tags (ESTs) were produced from cDNA libraries representing a variety of growth conditions and cell types. Several Magnaporthe grisea strains were used to produce the libraries, including a nonpathogenic strain bearing a ...

A Covert Operation by a Plant Pathogen [PDF]

open access: yesCell Host & Microbe, 2016
Phytopathogens have mastered the ability to evade plant innate immunity. In this issue of Cell Host & Microbe, Zhou and colleagues (Li et al., 2016) uncover a strategy whereby a bacterial pathogen disables the plant immune system with such precision as to avoid triggering alarms that could potentially reveal its presence.

Rab14 regulates the transport of human papillomavirus to the trans‐Golgi network for infectious cell entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals that the small GTPase Rab14 is necessary for human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and plays an essential role in the transport of virions to the trans‐Golgi network (TGN). HPV in the early endosome (EE), which harbors GTP‐bound Rab14, is transported to the TGN through the switch of Rab14 from its GTP‐bound to GDP‐bound form.

External pH: An Environmental Signal That Helps to Rationalize pel Gene Duplication in Erwinia chrysanthemi

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2000
The phytopathogenic bacterium Erwinia chrysanthemi produces five major pectate lyases that are key virulence factors in soft-rot disease development. Using transcriptional fusions, we studied the regulation of pelA, pelD, and pelE gene expression as a ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Investigating the Pea Virome in Germany—Old Friends and New Players in the Field(s)

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Peas are an important legume for human and animal consumption and are also being used as green manure or intermediate crops to sustain and improve soil condition. Pea production faces constraints from fungal, bacterial, and viral diseases.
