Genotyping based on genomic comparative hybridization of different isolates of coxiella burnetii compared to NMI reference strain Two-condition experiment, NMI vs. isolates. One replicate per isolate.
Coxiella burnetii, the agent of Q fever, persists in humans despite specific immune responses: however, its reservoir remains unknown. We detected C. burnetii in adipose tissue from BALB/c and C57/BL6 mice 4 months after infection when no bacteria were found in other tissues. C. burnetii infected cu...
Q fever, a zoonosis due to Coxiella burnetii infection, exhibits sexual dimorphism; men are affected more frequently and severely than women for a given exposure. Here we explore whether the severity of C. burnetii infection in mice is related to differences in male and female gene expression profil...
The formation of granulomas is associated with the resolution of Q fever, a zoonosis due to Coxiella burnetii; however the molecular mechanisms of granuloma formation remain poorly understood. We generated human granulomas with peripheral blood mononuclear cells and beads coated with C. burnetii, us...
This study employs a spatial proteomics approach combining APEX2 proximity labeling with SILAC (Stable Isotope Labeling by Amino acids in Cell culture) to map the nascent proteome in the vicinity of DFCP1.
This study investigates protein complexes associated with RacK1 under conditions of mTOR inhibition. Wild-type HeLa cells were treated with the mTOR inhibitor Torin1, followed by immunoprecipitation using a RacK1-specific antibody to enrich RacK1-associated protein complexes. The immunoprecipitates ...
Dicer is a central enzymatic player in RNA interference (RNAi) pathways that acts to regulate gene expression in nearly all eukaryotes. Although the cytoplasmic function of Dicer is well documented in mammals, there is little known about any possible nuclear function. Here we show that Dicer is pre...
Telomere dysfunctional CMP/GMP have deregulated pathways that are associated with DNA damage signaling We compared differentially expressed genes in the G4/G5 CMP relative to the G0 control to identify pathways that may affect CMP differentiation. Bone marrow CMP and GMP cells were sorted from two p...
