Special Issue on Emerging Bacterial Toxins (Reviews of Physiology, Biochemistry and Pharmacology)

Buy
Many bacterial ADP-ribosyltransferases are potent bacterial protein toxins and important virulence factors. After cellular uptake caused by highly efficient cell entry mechanisms, they modify eukaryotic target proteins with great specificity and often grossly affect biological functions of their targets. These properties of the toxins are the reason for their use as cell biological and pharmacological tools (Aktories 2000). Particularly successful pharmacological tools are ADP-ribosyltransferases of the C3 family, which modify Rho GTPases. In the 1990s, C3 exoenzymes turned out to be very valuable experimental keys to understand the wide array of diverse regulatory functions of Rho GTPases. In hundreds of papers, C3 exoenzymes have been widely employed as cell biological tools to elucidate the cellular functions of Rho GTPases. This holds true despite the fact that these ADP-ribosyltransferases are rather poorly taken up by eukaryotic targets cells and their roles as virulence factors are still not well defined. Here, we will briefly review the basic properties of these ADP-ribosyltransferases and will focus on novel findings on the functional consequences of C3-induced ADP-ribosylation and discuss recent reports on the structure and function of the enzymes.

Game Character Development
Game Character Development
The game development industry is in some ways quite similar to the film industry. We create entertainment for the masses, escapism for people as they are taken into different lives, and amazing worlds of imagination and wonder. The outsider’s view of what it must be like to work in these industries is often enjoyed through rose-tinted...

Introduction to Fuzzy Logic using MATLAB
Introduction to Fuzzy Logic using MATLAB
The world we live in is becoming ever more reliant on the use of electronics and computers to control the behavior of real-world resources. For example, an increasing amount of commerce is performed without a single banknote or coin ever being exchanged. Similarly, airports can safely land and send off airplanes without ever looking out of a...
