Diverse Bacteria Are Pathogens of Caenorhabditis elegans

Couillault, Carole, Ewbank, Jonathan J.

Practically and ethically attractive as model systems, invertebrate organisms are increasingly recognized as relevant for the study of bacterial pathogenesis. We show here that the nematode...

The Salmonella effector protein PipB2 is a linker for kinesin-1

Henry, Thomas, Couillault, Carole, Rockenfeller, Patrick, Boucrot, Emmanuel, Dumont, Audrey, Schroeder, Nina, ...

Understanding the mechanisms of Salmonella virulence is an important challenge. The capacity of this intracellular bacterial pathogen to cause diseases depends on the expression of virulence factors...

Anti-Fungal Innate Immunity in C. elegans Is Enhanced by Evolutionary Diversification of Antimicrobial Peptides

Pujol, Nathalie, Zugasti, Olivier, Wong, Daniel, Couillault, Carole, Kurz, C. Léopold, Schulenburg, Hinrich, ...

Encounters with pathogens provoke changes in gene transcription that are an integral part of host innate immune responses. In recent years, studies with invertebrate model organisms have given...
