Journal ArticleDOI

Oligomerization of type III secretion proteins PopB and PopD precedes pore formation in Pseudomonas.

TL;DR: Formation of metastable oligomers precedes membrane association and ring generation in the formation of the Pseudomonas translocon, a mechanism which may be similar for other pathogens that employ type III secretion systems.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural Basis of Host Cell Recognition by the Pilus Adhesin from Streptococcus pneumoniae

TL;DR: It is shown by site-specific mutagenesis, mass spectrometry, and thermal shift assays that intradomain isopeptide bonds play key roles in stabilizing RrgA's stalk, which suggests common strategies for ECM recognition and immune evasion.
Journal ArticleDOI

AdcAII, a new pneumococcal Zn-binding protein homologous with ABC transporters: biochemical and structural analysis.

TL;DR: Functional and structural data provide new perspectives related to the physiological role of AdcAII in pneumococcus Zn homeostasis and a phylogenetic tree built from the sequence alignment of 68 proteins reveals a subgroup of members displaying an unusual genetic operon organisation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Active site restructuring regulates ligand recognition in class A penicillin-binding proteins

TL;DR: The structure of PBP1b* complexed with beta-lactam antibiotics reveals that ligand recognition requires a conformational modification involving conserved elements within the cleft, and suggest how class A PBPs may become activated as novel peptidoglycan synthesis becomes necessary during the cell division process.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Interaction of Streptococcus pneumoniae with Plasmin Mediates Transmigration across Endothelial and Epithelial Monolayers by Intercellular Junction Cleavage

TL;DR: The results highlight a novel function for the plasminogen recruitment at the bacterial surface in facilitating adherence of pneumococci to endothelial and epithelial cells, while active plAsmin degrades intercellular junctions.
