Atomic Resolution Insights into Curli Fiber Biogenesis
Bacteria produce functional amyloid fibers called curli in a controlled, noncytotoxic manner. These extracellular fimbriae enable biofilm formation and promote pathogenicity. Understanding curli biogenesis is important for appreciating microbial lifestyles and will offer clues as to how disease-associated human amyloid formation might be ameliorated. Proteins encoded by the curli specific genes...
متن کاملMyelin Biogenesis: Sorting out Protein Trafficking
Myelin biogenesis is a complex process involving coordinated exocytosis, endocytosis, mRNA transport and cytoskeletal dynamics. Recent studies indicate that soluble neuronal signals may control the surface expression of proteolipid protein, a process that involves reduced endocytosis and/or increased transport carrier recruitment from an intracellular pool.
متن کاملSpatiotemporal order out of noise
Natural systems are undeniably subject to random fluctuations, arising from either environmental variability or thermal effects. The consideration of those fluctuations supposes to deal with noisy quantities whose variance might at times be a sizable fraction of their mean levels. It is known that, under these conditions, noisy fluctuations can interact with the system’s nonlinearities to rende...
متن کاملOrder out of Disorder: Working Cycle of an Intrinsically Unfolded Chaperone
The redox-regulated chaperone Hsp33 protects organisms against oxidative stress that leads to protein unfolding. Activation of Hsp33 is triggered by the oxidative unfolding of its own redox-sensor domain, making Hsp33 a member of a recently discovered class of chaperones that require partial unfolding for full chaperone activity. Here we address the long-standing question of how chaperones reco...
متن کاملHigher order Rab programming in phagolysosome biogenesis
Phagosomes offer kinetically and morphologically tractable organelles to dissect the control of phagolysosome biogenesis by Rab GTPases. Model phagosomes harboring latex beads undergo a coordinated Rab5-Rab7 exchange, which is akin to the process of endosomal Rab conversion, the control mechanisms of which are unknown. In the process of blocking phagosomal maturation, the intracellular pathogen...
