Bacterial peptidoglycan degrading enzymes and their impact on host muropeptide detection.
Peptidoglycan (PGN) is a major component of the bacterial cell envelope in both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. These muropeptides can be produced or modified by the activity of bacterial glycolytic and peptidolytic enzymes referred to as PGN hydrolases and autolysins. Some of these bacterial enzymes are crucial for bacterial pathogenicity and have been shown to modulate muropeptide r...
متن کاملNod1 detects a unique muropeptide from gram-negative bacterial peptidoglycan.
Although the role of Toll-like receptors in extracellular bacterial sensing has been investigated intensively, intracellular detection of bacteria through Nod molecules remains largely uncharacterized. Here, we show that human Nod1 specifically detects a unique diaminopimelate-containing N-acetylglucosamine-N-acetylmuramic acid (GlcNAc-MurNAc) tripeptide motif found in Gram-negative bacterial p...
متن کاملA simple gel electrophoretic method for analyzing the muropeptide composition of bacterial peptidoglycan.
The muropeptide composition of bacterial peptidoglycan is currently most efficiently determined by reverse-phase high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Though sensitive, the HPLC procedure is technically demanding and has been applied to a relatively small number of bacterial strains and species. We have found that fluorescence-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis (FACE) is a simple, rapi...

می توان گفت واقعیت چند لایه ا ی کلاس های زبان انگلیسی بسیار حائز اهمیت است، زیرا عواطف و بینش های زبان آموزان تحت تاثیر قرار می گیرد. در پژوهش پیش رو، گفته می شود که دبیران با در پیش گرفتن رویکرد فرا-انسانگرایی ، قادرند در زندگی دانش آموزانشان نقش مهمی را ایفا سازند. بر اساس گفته ی ویلیامز و بردن (2000)، برای کرل راجرز، یکی از بنیان گذاران رویکرد انسانگرایی ، یادگیری بر مبنای تجربه، نوعی از یاد...
Structural biology of starch-degrading enzymes and their regulation.
Starch is a major energy source for all domains of life. Recent advances in structures of starch-degrading enzymes encompass the substrate complex of starch debranching enzyme, the function of surface binding sites in plant isoamylase, details on individual steps in the mechanism of plant disproportionating enzyme and a self-stabilised conformation of amylose accommodated in the active site of ...
