Detecting virulence and drug-resistance mycobacterial phenotypes in vivo.

Abstract:

:Bacterial phenotypes are predominantly studied in culture because detection of their specific metabolic pathways in the host is challenging. Development of stable-isotope breath tests, allowing in situ phenotype analyses, may endow diagnostics with new modalities based upon direct monitoring of in vivo microbial metabolism and host-pathogen phenotypic interactions.

  • Influenza Hemagglutinin Protein Stability, Activation, and Pandemic Risk.

    abstract::For decades, hemagglutinin (HA) protein structure and its refolding mechanism have served as a paradigm for understanding protein-mediated membrane fusion.
