  1. 11. Timing and targeting of Type III secretion translocation of virulence effectors in Yersinia

    Författare :Sofie Ekestubbe; Åke Forsberg; Roland Rosqvist; Maria Fällman; Kurt Schesser; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Type III secretion system; virulence; translocation; Yersinia pseudotuberculosis; LcrV; YopN; effector targeting; phagocytosis inhibition; YopH; in vivo infection;

    Sammanfattning : 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.

  2. 12. Genomics, physiology and applications of cold tolerant acidophiles

    Författare :Maria Liljeqvist; Mark Dopson; Ricardo Amilis; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Psychrotolerant acidophiles have gained increasing interest because of their importance in biomining operations in environments where the temperature falls well below 10°C during large parts of the year.Acidithiobacillus ferrivorans is the only characterized acidophile with the ability to live a psychrotrophic lifestyle and is able to oxidize ferrous iron and inorganic sulfur compounds at low temperature.

  3. 13. Cell-to-cell communication and virulence in Vibrio anguillarum

    Författare :Kristoffer Lindell; Debra Milton; Karl Klose; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; vibrio anguillarum; quorum sensing; stress response; keratocyte; molekylärbiologi; Molecular Biology;

    Sammanfattning : Quorum sensing (QS) is a type of cell-to-cell communication that allows the bacteria to communicate via small molecules to coordinate activities such as growth, biofilm formation, virulence, and stress response as a population. QS depends on the accumulation of signal molecules as the bacterial population increases. LÄS MER

  4. 14. Growth and survival of Acidithiobacilli in Acidic, metal rich environments

    Författare :Stefanie Mangold; Mark Dopson; Axel Schippers; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Acidithiobacilli are acidophilic microorganisms that play important roles in many natural processes such as acidification of the environment, influencing metal mobility, and impacting on global sulfur and iron cycles. Due to their distinct metabolic properties they can be applied in the industrial extraction of valuable metals. LÄS MER

  5. 15. Global regulatory factors that impact metabolic and lifestyle choices in Pseudomonas putida

    Författare :Lisa Wirebrand; Victoria Shingler; Matthew Francis; Carlos Balsalobre; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Pseudomonas putida; c-di-GMP; motility; ppGpp; DksA; biofilm dispersal; transcriptional and translational regulation; dmp-system; phenol catabolism; carbon repression control; plasmid stability;

    Sammanfattning : Pseudomonas putida strains have a broad metabolic capacity and are innately resistant to many harmful substances – properties that make them of interest for a number of industrial and biotechnological application. They can rapidly adapt to changes in physico-chemical parameters in the soil and water environments they naturally inhabit. LÄS MER
