1. Protein targeting, translocation and insertion in Escherichia coli : Proteomic analysis of substrate-pathway relationships
Abstract : Approximately 10% of the open reading frames in the genome of the Gram-negative bacterium E. coli encodes secretory proteins, and 20% encodes integral inner membrane proteins (IMPs). READ MORE

2. Solid-State Nanopores for Sensing : From Theory to Applications
Abstract : Nanopore based sensing technology has been widely studied for a broad range of applications including DNA sequencing, protein profiling, metabolite molecules, and ions detection. The nanopore technology offers an unprecedented technological solution to meeting the demands of precision medicine on rapid, in-field, and low-cost biomolecule analysis. READ MORE

3. Delivery of TypeIII Secreted Toxins by Yersinia pseudotuberculosis : the Role of LcrV, YopD, and Free Lipids in the Translocation Process
Abstract : Bacteria that infect humans and animals face a hard combat with the host´s immune system and in order to establish infection, pathogenic bacteria has evolved mechanisms to avoid being cleared from the host tissue. Many Gram-negatives carry a Type 3 secretion (T3S) system that is used to deliver effector proteins (toxins) into host cells. READ MORE

4. Dynamics of peptide chains during co-translational translocation, membrane integration & domain folding
Abstract : The biosynthesis of proteins occurs at the ribosomes, where amino acids are linked together into linear chains. Nascent protein chains may undergo several different processes during their synthesis. Some proteins begin to fold, while others interact with chaperones, targeting factors or processing enzymes.

5. Timing and targeting of Type III secretion translocation of virulence effectors in Yersinia
Abstract : The Type III secretion system (T3SS) is an important virulence mechanism that allows pathogenic bacteria to translocate virulence effectors directly into the cytoplasm of eukaryotic host cells to manipulate the host cells in favor of the pathogen. Enteropathogenic Yersinia pseudotuberculosis use a T3SS to translocate effectors, Yops, that prevent phagocytosis by immune cells, and is largely dependent on it to establish and sustain an infection in the lymphoid tissues of a mammalian host.
