Recognition and inactivation of LPS by lipophorin particles (2006)

Ma, Gang, Hay, Douglas, Li, Dongmei, Asgari, Sassan, Schmidt, Otto

Lipophorin is the major lipid carrier in insects, but various observations indicate that lipophorin is also involved in immune reactions. To examine a possible role of lipophorin in defence...

Deletion of the SSK1 Response Regulator Gene in Candida albicans Contributes to Enhanced Killing by Human Polymorphonuclear Neutrophils

Du, Chen, Calderone, Richard, Richert, John, Li, Dongmei

The isolation and partial functional characterization of the two-component response regulator SSK1 gene of Candida albicans was previously reported. Compared to wild-type (CAF2-1) and...
