Many bacterial pathogens that invade non‐phagocytic cells first interact with host cell surface
receptors. Adhesion to the host cell is followed by the activation of specific host signalling …

Listeria monocytogenes is a Gram-positive bacterium responsible for a severe infection
associated with different clinical features (gastroenteritis, meningoencephalitis, and abortion in …

Invasion of macrophages and replication within an acidic and degradative phagolysosome-like
vacuole are essential for disease pathogenesis by Coxiella burnetii, the bacterial agent …

Actin-based motility is used by various pathogens for dissemination within and between
cells. Yet host factors restricting this process have not been identified. Septins are GTP-binding …

Q fever is a highly infectious disease with a worldwide distribution. Its causative agent, the
intracellular bacterium Coxiella burnetii, infects a variety of vertebrate species, including …

Infection by the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes depends on host cell clathrin. To determine
whether this requirement is widespread, we analyzed infection models using diverse …

Studying ancient DNA allows us to retrace the evolutionary history of human pathogens, such
as Mycobacterium leprae, the main causative agent of leprosy. Leprosy is one of the oldest …

Membrane fission is a fundamental step in membrane transport. So far, the only fission protein
machinery that has been implicated in in vivo transport involves dynamin, and functions in …

Objectives To report the cognitive features of patients with severe coronavirus disease 2019
(COVID-19) entering the postacute phase, to understand whether COVID-19 acute …

Listeria monocytogenes surface proteins internalin (Inl)A and InlB interact with the junctional
protein E‐cadherin and the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) receptor Met, respectively, on …
