  1. 6. Multi-omics investigation into bacterial evolution

    Författare :Karl Dyrhage; Siv Andersson; Dan I. Andersson; Jay Hinton; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; bioinformatics; bacterial evolution; cellular complexity; comparative genomics; transcriptomics; proteomics; fructophilic lactic acid bacteria; Biologi med inriktning mot molekylär evolution; Biology with specialization in Molecular Evolution;

    Sammanfattning : The focus of this thesis is the investigation of the evolution and cellular processes of Tuwongella immobilis and Apilactobacillus kunkeei, two bacterial species with different levels of genomic and cellular complexity, using a multi-omics approach.In the first study we examined the proteome of T.

  2. 7. Vesicle-mediated and free soluble delivery of bacterial effector proteins by oral and systemic pathogens

    Författare :Bernard Thay; Jan Oscarsson; Mikael Rhen; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Periodontitis; Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans; Staphylococcus aureus; membrane vesicles; vesicle-host cell interaction; protein delivery; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Periodontitis, the primary cause of tooth-loss worldwide, is a bacterially induced chronic inflammatory disease of the periodontium. It is associated with systemic conditions such as cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, pathogenic mechanisms of periodontitis-associated bacteria that may contribute to the CVD association are unclear. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Membrane interactions of glycosyltransferases

    Författare :Jobst Liebau; Lena Mäler; Christofer Lendel; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Lipid; bicelle; glycosyltransferase; NMR; Biophysics; biofysik;

    Sammanfattning : Many important biological processes occur near or in membranes. The role of membranes is not merely confined to compartmentalization, they also form the matrix for membrane associated proteins and are of functional importance. Membrane associated proteins on the other hand require specific membrane properties for proper function. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Roles of secreted bacterial factors in modulation of host cell signalling

    Författare :Eric Toh; Sun Nyunt Wai; Teresa Frisan; Staffan Bohm; Ann-Beth Jonsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; bacteria-host interaction; motility-associated killing factor A; outer membrane vesicles; cytolysin A; phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate 5-kinase alpha; enhancer of zeste homologue 2; epigenetic modulation; Medical Cell Biology; medicinsk cellbiologi; mikrobiologi; Microbiology;

    Sammanfattning : Pathogenic bacteria employ several secretion systems to release or inject virulence factors that may alter host cell processes, generate a replicative niche, and aid bacterial survival in adverse environments. This thesis presents my investigations on how bacterial factors can modulate host cell signalling mechanisms. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Outer membrane vesicle-mediated export of virulence factors from Gram-negative bacteria

    Författare :Pramod Kumar Rompikuntal; Sun Nyunt Wai; Ann-Beth Jonsson; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Outer membrane vesicles; CDT; PGN; PrtV; Campylobacter jejuni; Vibrio cholerae; Aggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Sammanfattning : The Gram-negative, motile bacterium Campylobacter jejuni is a causative agent of food-borne gastroenteritis. Cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) is one of the important virulence factors for C. jejuni pathogenesis. It was not previously known how CDT is released from C. LÄS MER
