Background— The vascular remodeling responsible for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) involves predominantly the accumulation of α-smooth muscle actin–expressing mesenchymal-like cells in obstructive lesions. Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) may be a source those cells. Methods and Results— In situ evidence EndoMT human PAH was obtained by using confocal microscopy multiple fluorescent stainings at level, transmission electron correlative light ultrastructural level....

Surface proteins of Gram-positive bacteria play crucial roles in bacterial adhesion to host tissues. Regarding commensal or probiotic bacteria, intestinal mucosa may promote their persistence the gastro-intestinal tract and beneficial effects host. In this study, seven Lactococcus lactis strains exhibiting variable surface physico-chemical properties were compared for Caco-2 epithelial cells. test, only one vegetal isolate TIL448 expressed a high-adhesion phenotype. A nonadhesive derivative...

Abstract In bacteria, trans -translation is the main rescue system, freeing ribosomes stalled on defective messenger RNAs. This mechanism driven by small protein B (SmpB) and transfer-messenger RNA (tmRNA), a hybrid known to have both tRNA-like an mRNA-like domain. Here we present four cryo-EM structures of ribosome during at resolutions from 3.0 3.4 Å. These include high-resolution structure whole pre-accommodated state, as well accommodated translocated translocation intermediate....

Summary Bacterial adhesion is a critical step for colonization of the host. The pioneer colonizer and commensal bacterium human gastrointestinal tract, Streptococcus salivarius , has strong adhesive properties but molecular determinants this remain uncharacterized. Serine‐rich repeat (SRR) glycoproteins are family adhesins that fulfil an important role in adhesion. In general, Gram‐positive bacterial genomes have unique SRR glycoprotein‐encoding gene. We demonstrate S. expresses three large...

Abstract The multidomain ribosomal protein bS1 is the biggest and most flexible dynamic in 30S small subunit. Despite being essential for mRNA recruitment its primary role accommodation of start codon within decoding centre, there has not yet been a high-resolution description structure. Here, we present 3D atomic model OB1 OB2, bS1’s first two N-terminal domains, bound to an elongation-competent 70S ribosome. Our structure reveals that, as previously reported, anchored both by π-stacking...

During lactation, mammary epithelial cells secrete huge amounts of milk from their apical side. The current view is that caseins are secreted by exocytosis, whereas fat globules released budding, enwrapped the plasma membrane. Owing to number and large size globules, membrane surface needed for release might exceed A large-scale proteomics analysis both cytoplasmic lipid droplets globule membranes was used decipher cellular origins Surprisingly, differential protein profiles these two...

Abstract Toxins of toxin-antitoxin systems use diverse mechanisms to control bacterial growth. Here, we focus on the deleterious toxin atypical tripartite toxin-antitoxin-chaperone (TAC) system Mycobacterium tuberculosis , whose inhibition requires concerted action antitoxin and its dedicated SecB-like chaperone. We show that TAC is a bona fide ribonuclease identify exact cleavage sites in mRNA targets transcriptome-wide scale vivo. by occurs after second nucleotide ribosomal A-site codon...

Mechanisms underlying the transition from commensalism to virulence in Enterococcus faecalis are not fully understood. We previously identified enterococcal leucine-rich protein A (ElrA) as a factor of E. faecalis. The elrA gene is part an operon that comprises four other ORFs encoding putative surface proteins unknown function. In this work, we compared susceptibility phagocytosis three strains, including wild-type (WT), ΔelrA strain, and strain overexpressing whole elr order understand...

During translation's elongation cycle, factor G (EF-G) promotes messenger and transfer RNA translocation through the ribosome. Until now, structures reported for EF-G–ribosome complexes have been obtained by trapping EF-G in These results were based on use of non-hydrolyzable guanosine 5′-triphosphate (GTP) analogs, specific inhibitors or a mutated form. Here, we present first cryo-electron microscopy structure bound to ribosome absence an inhibitor. The reveals natural conformation EF-G·GDP...

Epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) involves profound changes in cell morphology, driven by transcriptional and epigenetic reprogramming. However, evidence suggests that translation ribosome composition also play key roles establishing pathophysiological phenotypes. Using genome-wide analyses, we reported significant rearrangement of the translational landscape machinery during EMT. Specifically, a line overexpressing EMT transcription factor ZEB1 displayed alterations reprogramming...
