S-acylation and lipid exchange at the ER-Golgi membrane contact sites regulate pathogen entry in human cells

Cells have evolved endocytic pathways to internalize different molecules, to regulate intra-cellular communication and their interaction with external environment. Pathogens have co-evolved with cells to exploit these processes for infections. In particula ...

Iron status influences non-alcoholic fatty liver disease in obesity through the gut microbiome

Xavier Fernandez-Real Girona

Background: The gut microbiome and iron status are known to play a role in the pathophysiology of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), although their complex interaction remains unclear. Results: Here, we applied an integrative systems medicine approa ...

Functional and structural characterization of Serratia marcescens ExbB: determinants of the interaction with HasB/TonB

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

ExbBD is part of a cytoplasmic membrane molecular motor driven by the proton-motive force. It belongs to the larger family of motors involved in nutriment import across the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria (ExbBD), flagellar rotation (MotAB) or lat ...

The molecular treasure box of environmental Vibrio cholerae strains

Natalia Carolina Drebes Dorr

Cholera pandemics have been affecting humankind for centuries and are still considered a major public health problem, especially in regions around the world with poor access to clean water and sanitation. Cholera pandemics are caused by a specific lineage ...

Iron sequestration by transferrin 1 mediates nutritional immunity in Drosophila melanogaster

Bruno Lemaitre, Jean Philippe Boquete, Igor Iatsenko, Alice Marra, Jasquelin Peña

Iron sequestration is a recognized innate immune mechanism against invading pathogens mediated by iron-binding proteins called transferrins. Despite many studies on antimicrobial activity of transferrins in vitro, their specific in vivo functions are poorl ...

Bedload transport: a walk between randomness and determinism. Part 1. The state of the art

Christophe Ancey

This paper outlines the various approaches used to calculate bedload transport. As bedload transport exhibits considerable spatial and temporalvariations, computing the bedload transport rates and morphological changes experienced by streambeds is difficul ...

Conditions for transient epidemics of waterborne disease in spatially explicit systems

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Marino Gatto

Waterborne diseases are a diverse family of infections transmitted through ingestion of-or contact with-water infested with pathogens. Outbreaks of waterborne infections often show well-defined spatial signatures that are typically linked to local eco-epid ...

Virology: Poxins Soothe the STING

Andrea Ablasser, Alexiane Clara Decout

The mammalian cyclic dinucleotide 2', 3'-cGAMP is a potent inducer of innate immune responses produced upon detection of cytosolic DNA by cGAS. The mechanisms underlying the control of intracellular cGAMP levels remained unclear. In a new study, Eaglesham ...

Applying a Trojan Horse Strategy to Ruthenium Complexes in the Pursuit of Novel Antibacterial Agents

Paul Joseph Dyson, Lucinda Kate Batchelor, Quentin François Antoine Laurent

Siderophores are iron chelators secreted by bacteria to scavenge iron(III) from their surrounding environment. They possess their own internalization pathway that is sufficiently unselective to be hijacked, making them suitable for Trojan Horse strategy ap ...

Folding and Endocytosis of Anthrax Toxin Receptors

Bacillus anthracis is the causative agent of the infectious disease anthrax. The disease is caused after taking up the spores by either inhalation, ingestion or through skin lesion. They then germinate inside the body and start secreting the tripartite ant ...
