Molecular Basis of Corynebacterium Diphtheriae Virulence and Infection In The Caenorhabditis Elegans Model Host
Corynebacterium diphtheriae is the causative agent of cutaneous and pharyngeal diphtheria in humans. While lethality is certainly caused by diphtheria toxin, corynebacterial colonization may primarily require proteinaceous fibers called pili, which mediate adherence to specific tissues. The type …

Oxidative Protein Folding Pathways In Gram-Positive Actinobacteria
… bond formation in <em>A. oris</em> and <em>C. diphtheriae</em>, we found that protein oxidation is catalyzed by the membrane-bound MdbA. In <em>A. oris</em>, MdbA activity is maintained by VKOR, which is absent in <em>C. diphtheriae</em>. MdbA-catalyzed disulfide bond formation is required for …

Insights Into The Reactivation, Regulation and Essentiality of Oxidative Protein Folding Pathways In Actinobacteria
… oris </em>and <em>Corynebacterium diphtheriae</em> oxidative protein folding is catalyzed by the primary thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase MdbA. MdbA is required for assembly of adhesive pilus, which mediate receptor-dependent bacterial interactions, or coaggregation, in <em>A. oris. …
