Isoniazid induces expression of the antigen 85 complex in Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

TL;DR: The existence of an intermediate, whose production is inhibited by isonicotinic acid hydrazide, which plays a negative feedback regulatory role in the metabolism of mycolic acids are revealed by the overexpression of the antigen 85 complex is postulated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of autophagy in IL-1β export and release from cells.

TL;DR: The mechanisms of secretion/passive release of the potent pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-1β are focused on, as a prototypical leaderless cytosolic protein cargo studied in the context of secretory autophagy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Pseudomonas aeruginosa homologs of hemC and hemD are linked to the gene encoding the regulator of mucoidy AlgR

TL;DR: Results suggest a link between physiological processes dependent on heme and conditions conducive to algD expression and mucoidy and suggest the presence of two newly identified P. aeruginosa genes with predicted gene products homologous to known porphobilinogen deaminases from other organisms, and uroporphyrinogen III cosynthase from Escherichia coli.
