Clustering of Tir during enteropathogenic E. coli infection triggers calcium influx-dependent pyroptosis in intestinal epithelial cells.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2020-12-30)
Clustering of the enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EPEC) type III secretion system (T3SS) effector translocated intimin receptor (Tir) by intimin leads to actin polymerisation and pyroptotic cell death in macrophages. ...
The Citrobacter rodentium type III secretion system effector EspO affects mucosal damage repair and antimicrobial responses.
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCE, 2018-10-01)
Infection with Citrobacter rodentium triggers robust tissue damage repair responses, manifested by secretion of IL-22, in the absence of which mice succumbed to the infection. Of the main hallmarks of C. rodentium infection ...
An E2-ubiquitin thioester-driven approach to identify substrates modified with ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like molecules.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2018-11-14)
Covalent modifications of proteins with ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like molecules are instrumental to many biological processes. However, identifying the E3 ligase responsible for these modifications remains a major bottleneck ...
Widespread epigenomic, transcriptomic and proteomic differences between hip osteophytic and articular chondrocytes in osteoarthritis.
(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2018-08-01)
OBJECTIVES: To identify molecular differences between chondrocytes from osteophytic and articular cartilage tissue from OA patients. METHODS: We investigated genes and pathways by combining genome-wide DNA methylation, RNA ...
Evaluation of a Dual Isolation Width Acquisition Method for Isobaric Labeling Ratio Decompression.
(AMER CHEMICAL SOC, 2019-03-01)
Isobaric labeling is a highly precise approach for protein quantification. However, due to the isolation interference problem, isobaric tagging suffers from ratio underestimation at the MS2 level. The use of narrow isolation ...
Single-cell transcriptomics identifies an effectorness gradient shaping the response of CD4+ T cells to cytokines.
(NATURE RESEARCH, 2020-04-14)
Naïve CD4+ T cells coordinate the immune response by acquiring an effector phenotype in response to cytokines. However, the cytokine responses in memory T cells remain largely understudied. Here we use quantitative proteomics, ...
Autoinhibition Mechanism of the Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzyme UBE2S by Autoubiquitination.
(CELL PRESS, 2019-08-06)
Ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes (E2s) govern key aspects of ubiquitin signaling. Emerging evidence suggests that the activities of E2s are modulated by posttranslational modifications; the structural underpinnings, however, ...
Intestinal Epithelial Cells and the Microbiome Undergo Swift Reprogramming at the Inception of Colonic Citrobacter rodentium Infection.
(AMER SOC MICROBIOLOGY, 2019-04-02)
We used the mouse attaching and effacing (A/E) pathogen Citrobacter rodentium, which models the human A/E pathogens enteropathogenic Escherichia coli and enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EPEC and EHEC), to temporally resolve ...
Overexpression of Claspin and Timeless protects cancer cells from replication stress in a checkpoint-independent manner.
(NATURE PUBLISHING GROUP, 2019-02-22)
Oncogene-induced replication stress (RS) promotes cancer development but also impedes tumor growth by activating anti-cancer barriers. To determine how cancer cells adapt to RS, we have monitored the expression of different ...
Citrobacter rodentium induces rapid and unique metabolic and inflammatory responses in mice suffering from severe disease.
(WILEY-HINDAWI, 2020-01-01)
The mouse pathogen Citrobacter rodentium is used to model infections with enterohaemorrhagic and enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EHEC and EPEC). Pathogenesis is commonly modelled in mice developing mild disease (e.g., ...
