A role for α- and β-catenins in bacterial uptake

Lecuit, Marc, Hurme, Reini, Pizarro-Cerdá, Javier, Ohayon, Hélène, Geiger, Benjamin, Cossart, Pascale

Interaction of internalin with E-cadherin promotes entry of Listeria monocytogenes into human epithelial cells. This process requires actin cytoskeleton rearrangements. Here we show, by using a...

The Outer Membrane of Brucella ovis Shows Increased Permeability to Hydrophobic Probes and Is More Susceptible to Cationic Peptides than Are the Outer Membranes of Mutant Rough Brucella abortus Strains

Freer, Enrique, Pizarro-Cerdá, Javier, Weintraub, Andrej, Bengoechea, José-Antonio, Moriyón, Ignacio, Hultenby, Kjell, ...

The permeability of the outer membrane (OM) to hydrophobic probes and its susceptibility to bactericidal cationic peptides were investigated for natural rough Brucella ovis and for mutant rough...

Virulent Brucella abortus Prevents Lysosome Fusion and Is Distributed within Autophagosome-Like Compartments

Pizarro-Cerdá, Javier, Moreno, Edgardo, Sanguedolce, Veronique, Mege, Jean-Louis, Gorvel, Jean-Pierre

Virulent and attenuated Brucella abortus strains attach to and penetrate nonprofessional phagocytic HeLa cells. Compared to pathogenic Brucella, the attenuated strain 19 hardly replicates within...

Brucella abortus Transits through the Autophagic Pathway and Replicates in the Endoplasmic Reticulum of Nonprofessional Phagocytes

Pizarro-Cerdá, Javier, Méresse, Stéphane, Parton, Robert G., Van Der Goot, Gisou, Sola-Landa, Alberto, Lopez-Goñi, Ignacio, ...

Brucella abortus is an intracellular pathogen that replicates within a membrane-bounded compartment. In this study, we have examined the intracellular pathway of the virulent B. abortus strain 2308...

Septins Regulate Bacterial Entry into Host Cells

Mostowy, Serge, Nam Tham, To, Danckaert, Anne, Guadagnini, Stéphanie, Boisson-Dupuis, Stéphanie, Pizarro-Cerdá, Javier, ...

Septin 11 Restricts InlB-mediated Invasion by ListeriaS⃞

Mostowy, Serge, Danckaert, Anne, Tham, To Nam, Machu, Christophe, Guadagnini, Stéphanie, Pizarro-Cerdá, Javier, ...

Septins are filament-forming GTPases implicated in several cellular functions, including cytokinesis. We previously showed that SEPT2, SEPT9, and SEPT11 colocalize with several bacteria entering into...
