Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Ebulin from Dwarf Elder (Sambucus ebulus L.): A Mini-Review

Toxins, 2015
Sambucus ebulus L. (dwarf elder) is a medicinal plant, the usefulness of which also as food is restricted due to its toxicity. In the last few years, both the chemistry and pharmacology of Sambucus ebulus L. have been investigated.

The proteasome cap RPT5/Rpt5p subunit prevents aggregation of unfolded ricin A chain [PDF]

, 2013
The plant cytotoxin ricin enters mammalian cells by receptor-mediated endocytosis, undergoing retrograde transport to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) where its catalytic A chain (RTA) is reductively separated from the holotoxin to enter the cytosol and ...

Secrets within stems: The cryptic Apodanthes caseariae (Apodanthaceae), a rare neotropical holoendoparasite

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Holoendoparasites are extremely rare plants that live entirely hidden inside their hosts, with only flowers and fruits visible. We studied Apodanthes caseariae, found in central and South America, parasitizing Casearia sylvestris. Little is known about its life cycle.

Engineering Biomimetic Nanoparticle Performance Through Fabrication Method Selection: Turbulent Jet Mixing, Microfluidics, and Extrusion

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Biomimetic nanoparticles (BNPs) combine liposomal biocompatibility with cell‐mimicking functions for targeted delivery. This study compares turbulent jet mixing, microfluidic mixing, and extrusion for BNP fabrication. Characterization, proteomics, and in vitro assays show that turbulent jet and microfluidic mixing produce stable, protein‐enriched ...

Inhibition of Targeted Bacterial Growth Using MazF‐Expressing Phagemids: A Novel Therapeutic Approach Based on Endoribonuclease Toxin Molecules

Microbiology and Immunology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The extensive and indiscriminate use of antibiotics, which are intended to halt bacterial growth or eliminate them, has unintentionally given rise to antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which is a critical threat to global health. In the pursuit of alternative solutions, researchers have focused on type II toxin–antitoxin systems prevalent within ...

Folding, misfolding, and regulation of intracellular traffic of G protein‐coupled receptors involved in the hypothalamic–pituitary–gonadal axis

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background G protein‐coupled receptors are a large and functionally diverse family of membrane receptors involved in a number of biological processes. Like other proteins, G protein‐coupled receptors need to be properly folded in order to traffic to the plasma membrane and interact with agonist.

Transcriptional profiling of colicin-induced cell death of Escherichia coli MG1655 identifies potential mechanisms by which bacteriocins promote bacterial diversity [PDF]

, 2004
We report the transcriptional response of Escherichia coli MG1655 to damage induced by colicins E3 and E9, bacteriocins that kill cells through inactivation of the ribosome and degradation of chromosomal DNA, respectively. Colicin E9 strongly induced the
