The functions of mucosal T cells in containing the indigenous commensal flora of the intestine

There is an immense load of non-pathogenic commensal bacteria in the distal small intestine and the colon of mammals. The physical barrier that prevents penetration (translocation) of these organisms into the body is a simple epithelium comprised of the si ...

Clostridium perfringens urease genes are plasmid borne.

Stewart Cole

Although many bacteria are ureolytic, and in some cases urease acts as a virulence factor, the urease phenotype has not been analyzed in the anaerobic pathogen Clostridium perfringens. In this study, approximately 2% of C. perfringens strains, representing ...

Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry in the subunit stoichiometry study of high mass non-covalent complexes

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg

This study explores the potential of MALDI-TOF MS for the mass measurement of large non-covalent protein complexes. The following non-covalent complexes have been investigated: aerolysin from Aeromonas hydrophila (335 kDa) and α-haemolysin from Staphylococ ...

Partial C-terminal unfolding is required for channel formation by staphylococcal alpha-toxin

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg

The pore-forming alpha-toxin from Staphylococcus aureus is secreted as a soluble monomeric protein. In order to form a transmembrane channel, the protein has to undergo oligomerization and membrane insertion. Previous studies have shown that channel format ...

A simple and rapid technique for the detection of rifampin resistance in Mycobacterium leprae

Stewart Cole

The rifampin resistance of Mycobacterium leprae is due to missense mutations in the rpoB gene encoding the beta-subunit of the essential enzyme RNA polymerase. A rapid and very simple method has been developed to detect rifampin resistance in small numbers ...

Surface-immobilized polyethylene oxide for bacterial repellence

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

Polyethylene terephthalate films were surface-modified with polyethylene oxide (18,500 g/mol) using a solution technique described previously. These films were investigated for their resistance to bacterial adhesion. Three bacterial strains most commonly a ...
