YlaD, a membrane-anchored anti-sigma (σ) factor of Bacillus subtilis, contains a HX3CXXC motif that functions as a redox-sensing domain and belongs to one of the zinc (Zn)-co-ordinated anti-σ factor families. Despite previously showing that the YlaC transcription is controlled by YlaD, experimental evidence of how the YlaC–YlaD interaction is affected by active cysteines and/or metal ions is lacking. Here, we showed that the Pyla promoter is autoregulated solely by YlaC. Moreover, reduced YlaD contained Zn and iron, while oxidized YlaD did not. Cysteine substitution in YlaD led to changes in i

Competitive bacteria like the human pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa can acquire iron from different iron carriers, which are usually internalized via outer membrane TonB-dependent receptors (TBDRs). Production of TBDRs is promoted by the presence of the substrate. This regulation often entails a signal transfer pathway known as cell-surface signaling (CSS) that involves the TBDR itself that also functions as transducer (and is thus referred to as TBDT), a cytoplasmic membrane-bound anti-σ factor, and an extracytoplasmic function σ (σECF) factor. TBDTs contain an extra N-terminal domain known a

In the absence of lysozyme, σV is inhibited by the anti-σ factor RsiV. In response to lysozyme, RsiV is degraded via the process of Regulated Intramembrane Proteolysis (RIP).

Abstract:
Platelet (plt) factor 4 (PF4) is an alpha granule protein which can modulate T lymphocyte function. T cells may help regulate megakaryocytopoiesis. Therefore, we hypothesized that T cell-PF4 interactions might play a role in autoregulating marrow megakaryocyte (MEG) production. To test this idea, we studied MEG colony formation in plasma clot cultures containing human serum derived solely from pit poor normal AB plasma, enriched hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPC), autologous T cells, and exogenous PF4. Highly purified PF4 (single band on SDS gel) was prepared from outdated human pits by a co

Abstract:
The present paper aims at determining the effect of several design and manufacturing parameters on the frictional response of the underhead contact in a bolted joint comprising a socket-head M6 class 12.9 screw. The rationale of the research moves from the need to understand the frictional behavior of screw joints used in machine tools as a means to join roller monoguides with the moving carriages of three-axis tooling units. The experimentation takes into account different underhead materials (Steel, Cast Iron, Aluminum), different roughness levels (Ra = 0.8, 1.6, 3.2), different surface trea

Abstract:
Transient growth of energy is known to occur even in stable dynamical systems due to the non-normality of the underlying linear operator. This has been the object of growing attention in the field of hydrodynamic stability, where linearly stable flows may be found to be strongly nonlinearly unstable as a consequence of transient growth. We apply these concepts to the generic case of coupled-mode flutter, which is a mechanism with important applications in the field of fluid-structure interactions.

Abstract:
Interaction between cells and between cells and extracellular matrices are critical for a number of biological processes, including organ development, cell differenciation, cell motility, and the inimune' response. These interactions are mediated by a family of adhesion receptors that recognize short sequences such as Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD). These receptors share similar structural properties. They are heterodimers composed of a and B subunits and sometime express common epitopes. This suggests that the structural and functional relationship of these receptors may result from the transcription of r

The objectives of the BARD proposal were to determine the mechanisms of nonspecific cytotoxic cells (NCC) that are necessary to provide heightened innate resistance to infection and to identify the antigenic determinants in Streptococcus iniae that are best suited for vaccine development. Our central hypothesis was that anti-bacterial immunity in trout and tilapia can only be acquired by combining "innate" NCC responses with antibody responses to polysaccharide antigens.

Abstract:
Tomato yellow leaf curl geminivirus (TYLCV) is a major pathogen of cultivated tomato, causing up to 100% crop loss in many parts of the world. In Israel, where TYLCV epidemics have been recorded since the 1960' s, this viral disease is well known and has been of economic significance ever since. In recent years, TYLCV outbreaks also occurred in the "New World" - Cuba, The Dominican Republic, and in the USA, in Florida, Georgia and Louisiana. Thus, TYLCV substantially hinders tomato growth throughout the world. Surprisingly, however, little is known about the molecular mechanisms of TYLCV inter

Chemical signaling between beneficial or pathogenic bacteria and plants is a central factor in determining the outcome of plant-microbe interactions. Pectobacterium and Dickeya (soft rot Erwinias) are the major cause of soft rot, stem rot, and blackleg formed on potato and ornamentals, currently with no effective control. Our major aim was to establish and study specific bacterial genes/proteins as targets for anti-virulence compounds, by combining drug design tools and bioinformatics with experimental work.

The general objective of this study was to develop rationally designed mimetic antagonists (and agonists) of the PK/PBAN Np class with enhanced bio-stability and bioavailability as prototypes for effective and environmentally friendly pest insect management agents. The PK/PBAN family is a multifunctional group of Nps that mediates key functions in insects (sex pheromone biosynthesis, cuticular melanization, myotropic activity, diapause and pupal development) and is, therefore, of high scientific and applied interest.
