Differential regulation of Shigella Spa47 ATPase activity by a native C-terminal product of Spa33

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
Shigella is a Gram-negative bacterial pathogen that relies on a single type three secretion system (T3SS) as its primary virulence factor. The T3SS includes a highly conserved needle-like apparatus that directly injects bacterial effector proteins into ...

Multitask Approach to Localize Rhizobial Type Three Secretion System Effector Proteins Inside Eukaryotic Cells

open access: yesPlants, 2023
Rhizobia can establish mutually beneficial interactions with legume plants by colonizing their roots to induce the formation of a specialized structure known as a nodule, inside of which the bacteria are able to fix atmospheric nitrogen.

A Pathogenicity Gene Isolated from the pPATH Plasmid of Erwinia herbicola pv. gypsophilae Determines Host Specificity

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 1998
The host range of the gall-forming bacterium Erwinia herbicola pv. gypsophilae (Ehg) is restricted to the gypsophila plant whereas E. herbicola pv. betae (Ehb) incites galls on beet as well as gypsophila.
