Host-plant invasion by Rhizobium: the role of cell-surface components.

Abstract:

:Rhizobia are soil bacteria that can become endosymbionts, reducing atmospheric nitrogen within nodules formed on the roots of legume plants. During tissue and cell invasion, bacterial cell-surface components adapt the bacterium to survive as an endophyte without eliciting host-defence responses. The structures of many of these components have been established recently, allowing their possible roles in invasion to be defined more clearly.

  • Restriction of retroviral replication by APOBEC3G/F and TRIM5alpha.

    abstract::Pathogenic viral infections have exerted selection pressure on their hosts to evolve cellular antiviral inhibitors referred to as restriction factors. Examples of such molecules are APOBEC3G, APOBEC3F and TRIM5alpha. APOBEC3G and APOBEC3F are cytidine deaminases that are able to strongly inhibit retroviral replication...
