cis-regulatory variation modulates susceptibility to enteric infection in the Drosophila genetic reference panel

Bart Deplancke, Maroun Bou Sleiman, Vincent Roland Julien Gardeux, Riccardo Dainese, Maria Litovchenko, Michael Vincent Frochaux, Dani Osman, Brian Dennis Hollis, Virginie Sandra Braman

Background: Resistance to enteric pathogens is a complex trait at the crossroads of multiple biological processes. We have previously shown in the Drosophila Genetic Reference Panel (DGRP) that resistance to infection is highly heritable, but our understan ...

Structure and Function of the T4 Spackle Protein Gp61.3

Petr Leiman

The bacteriophage T4 genome contains two genes that code for proteins with lysozyme activity-e and 5. Gene e encodes the well-known T4 lysozyme (commonly called T4L) that functions to break the peptidoglycan layer late in the infection cycle, which is requ ...

Early sepsis diagnosis via protein and miRNA biomarkers using a novel point-of-care photonic biosensor

Hatice Altug, Alexander Belushkin

y Sepsis is a condition characterized by a severe stage of blood-infection often leading to tissue damage, organ failure and finally death. Fast diagnosis and identification of the sepsis stage (sepsis, severe sepsis or septic shock) is critical for the pa ...

Preexisting variation in DNA damage response predicts the fate of single mycobacteria under stress

John McKinney, Neeraj Dhar, Giulia Manina

Clonal microbial populations are inherently heterogeneous, and this diversification is often considered as an adaptation strategy. In clinical infections, phenotypic diversity is found to be associated with drug tolerance, which in turn could evolve into g ...

Elucidating regulatory mechanisms shaping the transcriptome and proteome of the gut immune response in Drosophila melanogaster

Michael Vincent Frochaux

Work on Drosophila melanogaster paved the way to our current understanding of modern genetics. Since then, this model organism has contributed greatly to various fields such as neurobiology, development, and immunology. The discovery and analysis of the va ...

Safely Managed Hygiene: A Risk-Based Assessment of Handwashing Water Quality

Timothy R. Julian, Matthew Eric Verbyla

Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Indicator 6.2.1 requires household handwashing facilities to have soap and water, but there are no guidelines for handwashing water quality. In contrast, drinking water quality guidelines are defined: water must be "free ...

Structure and transformation of bacteriophage A511 baseplate and tail upon infection of Listeria cells

Petr Leiman, Sergey Nazarov, Mikhail Shneyder, Ricardo Cesar Guerrero Ferreira, Nicholas Michael Ian Taylor

Contractile injection systems (bacteriophage tails, type VI secretions system, R-type pyocins, etc.) utilize a rigid tube/contractile sheath assembly for breaching the envelope of bacterial and eukaryotic cells. Among contractile injection systems, bacteri ...

Cell-Specific Imd-NF-κB Responses Enable Simultaneous Antibacterial Immunity and Intestinal Epithelial Cell Shedding upon Bacterial Infection

Bruno Lemaitre, Jean Philippe Boquete, Zongzhao Zhai

Intestinal infection triggers potent immune responses to combat pathogens and concomitantly drives epithelial renewal to maintain barrier integrity. Current models propose that epithelial renewal is primarily driven by damage caused by reactive oxygen spec ...
