Disruption of the SucT acyltransferase in Mycobacterium smegmatis abrogates succinylation of cell envelope polysaccharides

Haig Alexander Eskandarian

Similar to other prokaryotes, mycobacteria decorate their major cell envelope glycans with minor covalent substituents whose biological significance remains largely unknown. We report on the discovery of a mycobacterial enzyme, named here SucT, that adds s ...

Single particle maximum likelihood reconstruction from superresolution microscopy images

Suliana Manley, Julia Gunzenhäuser

Point localization superresolution microscopy enables fluorescently tagged molecules to be imaged beyond the optical diffraction limit, reaching single molecule localization precisions down to a few nanometers. For small objects whose sizes are few times t ...

Severe viral respiratory infections in children with IFIH1 loss-of-function mutations

Jacques Fellay, Paul Jack Mc Laren, Istvan Bartha, Christian Hammer, Thomas Junier, Samira Asgari

Viral respiratory infections are usually mild and self-limiting; still they exceptionally result in life-threatening infections in previously healthy children. To investigate a potential genetic cause, we recruited 120 previously healthy children requiring ...

Genotypic, phenotypic and mechanistic insights into viruses with resistance to common water disinfectants

Qingxia Zhong

Infectious diseases caused by waterborne viruses contribute to the global disease burden. An effective barrier to prevent the discharge of waterborne viruses is a disinfection step, yet disinfection is not always efficient at inactivating viruses. This the ...

Significance of surface charge and shell material of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle (SPION) based core/shell nanoparticles on the composition of the protein corona

Heinrich Hofmann, Lionel André Maurizi, Usawadee Sakulkhu, Géraldine Sylvie Coullerez

As nanoparticles (NPs) are increasingly used in many applications their safety and efficient applications in nanomedicine have become concerns. Protein coronas on nanomaterials' surfaces can influence how the cell "recognizes" nanoparticles, as well as the ...

Ex situ evaluation of the composition of protein corona of intravenously injected superparamagnetic nanoparticles in rats

Heinrich Hofmann, Lionel André Maurizi, Usawadee Sakulkhu

It is now well recognized that the surfaces of nanoparticles (NPs) are coated with biomolecules (e. g., proteins) in a biological medium. Although extensive reports have been published on the protein corona at the surface of NPs in vitro, there are very fe ...

How Viruses Hijack the ERAD Tuning Machinery

Maurizio Molinari

An essential step during the intracellular life cycle of many positive-strand RNA viruses is the rearrangement of host cell membranes to generate membrane-bound replication platforms. For example, Nidovirales and Flaviviridae subvert the membrane of the en ...
