Peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerases of Legionella pneumophila: virulence, moonlighting and novel therapeutic targets
(Portland Press Ltd, 2014)Legionella pneumophila, typically a parasite of free-living protozoa, can also replicate in human alveolar macrophages and lung epithelial cells causing Legionnaires' disease in humans, a severe atypical pneumonia. The ... -
The phenotypes of ATG9, ATG16 and ATG9/16 knock-out mutants imply autophagy-dependent and -independent functions
(Royal Soc, 2015)Macroautophagy is a highly conserved intracellular bulk degradation system of all eukaryotic cells. It is governed by a large number of autophagy proteins (ATGs) and is crucial for many cellular processes. Here, we describe ... -
Pleiotropic clostridioides difficile cyclophilin PpiB controls cysteine-tolerance, toxin production, the central metabolism and multiple stress responses
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2019)The Gram-positive pathogen Clostridioides difficile is the main bacterial agent of nosocomial antibiotic associated diarrhea. Bacterial peptidyl-prolyl-cis/trans-isomerases (PPlases) are well established modulators of ... -
Polyketide synthase (PKS) reduces fusion of Legionella pneumophila-containing vacuoles with lysosomes and contributes to bacterial competitiveness during infection
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2014)L. pneumophila-containing vacuoles (LCVs) exclude endocytic and lysosomal markers in human macrophages and protozoa. We screened a L. pneumophila mini-Tn10 transposon library for mutants, which fail to inhibit the fusion ... -
PrsA2 (CD630_35000) of clostridioides difficile Is an Active Parvulin-Type PPlase and a virulence modulator
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2018)Clostridioides difficile is the main cause for nosocomial antibiotic associated diarrhea and has become a major burden for the health care systems of industrial countries. Its main virulence factors, the small GTPase ... -
Revisiting cu(II) bound amyloid-?40 and amyloid-?42 peptides: varying coordination chemistries
(Turkish Chemical Society, 2018)Metal ions and intrinsically disordered peptides amyloid-?40 and amyloid-?42 are at the center of Alzheimer´s disease pathology. Divalent copper ion binds to amyloid-?40 and amyloid-?42 peptides with varying coordination ... -
Secondary structure dependence of amyloid-beta(1-40) on simulation techniques and force field parameters
(Wiley, 2021)Our recent studies revealed that none of the selected widely used force field parameters and molecular dynamics simulation techniques yield structural properties for the intrinsically disordered alpha-synuclein that are ... -
Structures of the Wild-Type and S59L Mutant CHCHD10 ProteinsImportant in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis-FrontotemporalDementia
(American Chemical Society, 2022)The S59L genetic mutation of the mitochondrial coiled-coil-helix-coiled-coil-helixdomain-containing protein 10 (CHCHD10) is involved in the pathogenesis of amyotrophic lateralsclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia ... -
Tissue regeneration processing and mimicking
(Springer Cham, 2023)Tissue regeneration has been one of the comprehensive topics that underlie tissue engineering and has been researched over years. The main aim in tissue engineering is to create a tissue microenvironment produced from ... -
Transition metal Ion interactions with disordered Amyloid-beta Peptides in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease: insights from computational chemistry studies
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2019)Monomers and oligomers of the amyloid-beta peptide aggregate to form the fibrils found in the brains of Alzheimer's disease patients. These monomers and oligomers are largely disordered and can interact with transition ... -
Tyrosine regulates beta-sheet structure formation in amyloid-beta(42): a new clustering algorithm for disordered proteins
(Amer Chemical Soc, 2017)Our recent studies show that the single Tyr residue in the sequence of amyloid-beta(42) (A beta(42)) is reactive toward various ligands, including metals and adenosine trisphospate (see: Coskuner, O. J. Biol. Inorg. Chem. ... -
Zinc metalloprotease ProA of Legionella pneumophila increases alveolar septal thickness in human lung tissue explants by collagen IV degradation
(Wiley, 2021)ProA is a secreted zinc metalloprotease of Legionella pneumophila causing lung damage in animal models of Legionnaires' disease. Here we demonstrate that ProA promotes infection of human lung tissue explants (HLTEs) and ...
