'Bois noir' phytoplasma induces significant reprogramming of the leaf transcriptome in the field grown grapevine.

30 Sep 2009 BACKGROUND: Phytoplasmas are bacteria without cell walls from the class Mollicutes. They are obligate intracellular plant pathogens which cause diseases in hundreds of economically important plants including the grapevine (Vitis vinifera). Knowledge ... Read more...

Implication of activin E in glucose metabolism: transcriptional regulation of the inhibin/activin betaE subunit gene in the liver.

20 Aug 2009 AIMS: Activin E is a newly identified member of the transforming growth factor-beta superfamily. To assess the role of activin E in glucose/energy metabolism, we investigated the transcriptional regulation of activin E in the liver. MAIN METHODS: ... Read more...

Capsular polysaccharide production in Enterococcus faecalis and contribution of CpsF to capsule serospecificity.

12 Aug 2009 Many bacterial species produce capsular polysaccharides that contribute to pathogenesis through evasion of the host innate immune system. The gram-positive pathogen Enterococcus faecalis was previously reported to produce one of four capsule ... Read more...
