Coupling Factors in Macromolecular Type-IV Secretion Machineries

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2004
Type IV secretion systems (T4SSs) are bacterial multiprotein organelles specialised in the transfer of (nucleo)protein complexes across cell membranes. They are essential for conjugation, bacterial-induced tumour formation in plant cells, as observed in Agrobacterium, toxin secretion, like in Bordetella and Helicobacter, cell-to-cell translocation of ...

Epistatic Interplay between Type IV Secretion Effectors Engages the Small GTPase Rab2 in the Brucella Intracellular Cycle

mBio, 2020
Intracellular bacterial pathogens remodel cellular functions during their infectious cycle via the coordinated actions of effector molecules delivered through dedicated secretion systems. While the function of many individual effectors is known, how they

The Legionella IcmSW complex directly interacts with DotL to mediate translocation of adaptor-dependent substrates. [PDF]

PLoS Pathogens, 2012
Legionella pneumophila is a Gram-negative bacterium that replicates within human alveolar macrophages by evasion of the host endocytic pathway through the formation of a replicative vacuole.

Comparative study of gp130 cytokine effects on corticotroph AtT-20 cells - Redundancy or specificity of neuroimmunoendocrine modulators? [PDF]

, 2004
Objective: This comparative in vitro study examined the effects of all known gp130 cytokines on murine corticotroph AtT-20 cell function. Methods: Cytokines were tested at equimolar concentrations from 0.078 to 10 nM.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Historical account on gaining insights on the mechanism of crown gall tumorigenesis induced by Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
The plant tumor disease, known as crown gall, was not called by that name until more recent times. Tumors on plants, particularly on cultivated grapevines, were observed thousands of years ago and recorded in the bible (wine was being made 7000 years ...
