Structural basis for recognition of RALF peptides by LRX proteins during pollen tube growth

Sarah Wehrle

Plant reproduction relies on the highly regulated growth of the pollen tube for sperm delivery. This process is controlled by secreted RALF signaling peptides, which have previously been shown to be perceived by Catharanthus roseus RLK1-like (CrRLK1Ls) mem ...

Cathepsin S Regulates Antigen Processing and T Cell Activity in Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, George Coukos, Elisa Oricchio, Natalya Katanayeva, Julien Racle, Jessica Sordet, Sarah Wehrle, Elena Battistello, Stephanie Jocelyne Sungalee, Elie Charles Eugène Dheilly

Genomic alterations in cancer cells can influence the immune system to favor tumor growth. In non-Hodgkin lymphoma, physiological interactions between B cells and the germinal center microenvironment are coopted to sustain cancer cell proliferation. We fou ...

Designs and Characterization of Subunit Ebola GP Vaccine Candidates: Implications for Immunogenicity

Florian Maria Wurm, Bruno Emanuel Ferreira De Sousa Correia, Sarah Wehrle, Divor Kiseljak

The humoral responses of Ebola virus (EBOV) survivors mainly target the surface glycoprotein GP, and anti-GP neutralizing antibodies have been associated with protection against EBOV infection. In order to elicit protective neutralizing antibodies through ...
