Unconventional protein secretion of Helja, an apoptotic lectin
(Vienna International Science Conferences & Events Association, 2019)
Proteins following unconventional protein secretion (UPS) bypass the RE-Golgi system to reach theapoplast. They use vesicular and no vesicular routes for their transport. Vesicular UPS can encompassdifferent pathways not ...
Secretory Autophagy and Its Relevance in Metabolic and Degenerative Disease
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2020-05)
Proteins to be secreted through so-called “conventional mechanisms” are characterized by the presence of an N-terminal peptide that is a leader or signal peptide, needed for access to the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi ...
The small secreted effector protein MiSSP7.6 of Laccaria bicolor is required for the establishment of ectomycorrhizal symbiosis
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-04)
To establish and maintain a symbiotic relationship, the ectomycorrhizal fungus Laccaria bicolor releases mycorrhiza-induced small secreted proteins (MiSSPs) into host roots. Here, we have functionally characterized the ...
Extracellular vesicles: A missing component in plant cell wall remodeling
(Oxford University Press, 2018-07)
In animal systems extracellular vesicles (EV) are known to transport cargo molecules from the cytoplasm to the extracellular compartment and they are the accepted vehicles for unconventional protein secretion. Plants have ...
Hydrophobic proteins secreted into the apoplast may contribute to resistance against Phytophthora infestans in potato
(Elsevier France-editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, 2012-07)
During plantepathogen interaction, oomycetes secrete effectors into the plant apoplast where they interact with host resistance proteins, which are accumulated after wounding or infection. Previous studies showed that the ...
Oomycete intracellular effectors: Specialized weapons targeting strategic plant processes
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-10-27)
Oomycete phytopathogens have adapted to colonise plants using effectors as their molecular weapons. Intracellular effectors, mostly proteins but also small ribonucleic acids, are delivered by the pathogens into the host ...
Extracellular Sunflower Proteins: Evidence on Non-classical Secretion of a Jacalin-Related Lectin
(Bentham Science Publishers, 2012-03)
Extracellular proteins from sunflower seedlings were analyzed by electrophoresis followed by peptide mass fingerprinting. Tentative identification revealed novel proteins for this crop. A significant number of those proteins ...
S100 A9 is expressed and secreted by the oviduct epithelium, interacts with gametes and affects parameters of human sperm capacitation in vitro
(Wiley, 2019-10)
Our previous findings demonstrate that some oviductal secretion proteins bind to gametes and affect sperm physiology and gamete interaction. One of these proteins possesses an estimated molecular weight of 14 kDa. The ...
Rab Proteins: Insights into Intracellular Trafficking in Endometrium
(SAGE Publications, 2020-07)
Rab proteins belong to the Ras superfamily of small monomeric GTPases. These G proteins are the main controllers of vesicular transport in every tissue, among them, the endometrium. They are in charge of to the functional ...
Type VI secretion system in pathogenic escherichia coli: structure, role in virulence, and acquisition
(Frontiers Media, 2019-08)
Bacterial pathogens utilize a myriad of mechanisms to invade mammalian hosts, damage tissue sites, and evade the immune system. One essential strategy of Gram-negative bacteria is the secretion of virulence factors through ...
