Investigations on the regulatory role of BglG on the expression of ridA and the pleiotropic effects of bglG deletion in E. coli
The bgl operon of E. coli encodes for the proteins involved in the uptake and catabolism of plant-derived aromatic beta-glucosides, normally associated with the soil environment. The silent state of the operon seen ...
Deciphering the role of outer membrane porins in the pathogenesis of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium
Porins are highly conserved barrel-shaped proteins bound to the bacterial outer membrane and involved in the selective transport of charged molecules across the membrane. They consist of parallel and anti-parallel β sheets ...
Pathogen-derived volatiles modulate flight or fight response in Caenorhabditis elegans
In nature, the interaction between two organisms largely relies on their ability to sense and respond to each other, which involves many specific chemicals and signaling pathways. Animals have evolved mechanisms to detect ...
Understanding the interaction mechanism of bacterial virulence factors and effector proteins with host lipid membrane using single particle cryo-electron microscopy
Pathogenic bacteria employ an array of biological macromolecules and cellular
structures that help in the initiation and progression of disease in host organism.
These ‘virulence factors’ can either be secreted by the ...
