Journal ArticleDOI
The Enterococcus faecalis MSCRAMM ACE Binds Its Ligand by the Collagen Hug Model
Qing Liu,Karthe Ponnuraj,Yi Xu,Vannakambadi K. Ganesh,Jouko Sillanpää,Barbara E. Murray,Sthanam V.L. Narayana,Magnus Höök +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that ACE binds collagen by a similar mechanism to that recently reported for CNA, the collagen binding MSCRAMM of Staphylococcus aureus, and the first biochemical evidence for this binding model is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pleiotrophic Effects of 2 Enterococcus faecalis sagA–Like Genes, salA and salB Which Encode Proteins That Are Antigenic during Human Infection, on Biofilm Formation and Binding to Collagen Type I and Fibronectin
TL;DR: A potential way in which this organism could increase its adherence to ECM proteins and biofilm formation during infection is identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of Enterococcus faecalis isolates from intercontinental sources by multilocus enzyme electrophoresis and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis.
TL;DR: MLEE provided a useful population framework of the E. faecalis isolates in this sample, while PFGE was able to differentiate among isolates within some MLEe clonal groups, but MLEE more readily recognized relationships among large numbers of isolates.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Association of Shiga Toxin and Other Cytotoxins with the Neurologic Manifestations of Shigellosis
TL;DR: Shiga toxin production is not essential for the development of neurologic manifestations of shigellosis; other toxic products may play a role.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enterococcus faecalis adhesin, Ace, mediates attachment to particulate dentin.
William J. Kowalski,Edward L. Kasper,John F. Hatton,Barbara E. Murray,Sreedhar R. Nallapareddy,M. Jane Gillespie +5 more
TL;DR: An enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was developed to assess E. faecalis adhesion to particulate dentin and inhibited adhesion of OG1RF grown at 46 degrees C to dentin.
