Ermert S, Hacker S, Buntru A, Scheffner M, Hauck C, Marx A
Chembiochem . 2016 Dec; 18(4):378-381. PMID: 27935244
Monitoring the activity of ATP-consuming enzymes provides the basis for elucidating their modes of action and regulation. Although a number of ATP analogues have been developed for this, their scope...

Buntru A, Trepte P, Klockmeier K, Schnoegl S, Wanker E
Front Genet . 2016 May; 7:74. PMID: 27200083
Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) play a key role in many, if not all, cellular processes. Disease is often caused by perturbation of PPIs, as recently indicated by studies of missense mutations....

Paone C, Rodrigues N, Ittner E, Santos C, Buntru A, Hauck C
J Innate Immun . 2016 Feb; 8(5):437-51. PMID: 26848986
Proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) is a member of the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) family and is mainly expressed in neuronal and hematopoietic cells. As FAK family members are involved...

Trepte P, Buntru A, Klockmeier K, Willmore L, Arumughan A, Secker C, et al.
J Mol Biol . 2015 Aug; 427(21):3375-88. PMID: 26264872
Mapping of protein-protein interactions (PPIs) is critical for understanding protein function and complex biological processes. Here, we present DULIP, a dual luminescence-based co-immunoprecipitation assay, for systematic PPI mapping in mammalian...

Borisova M, Shi Y, Buntru A, Worner S, Ziegler W, Hauck C
BMC Cell Biol . 2013 Jan; 14:2. PMID: 23294665
Background: Disease manifestations of Staphylococcus aureus are connected to the fibronectin (Fn)-binding capacity of these Gram-positive pathogens. Fn deposition on the surface of S. aureus allows engagement of α5β1 integrins...

Kopp K, Buntru A, Pils S, Zimmermann T, Frank R, Zumbusch A, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2012 Sep; 287(46):39158-70. PMID: 22948154
Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 3 (CEACAM3) is a phagocytic receptor on human granulocytes, which mediates the opsonin-independent recognition and internalization of a restricted set of Gram-negative bacteria such as...

Buntru A, Roth A, Nyffenegger-Jann N, Hauck C
Arch Biochem Biophys . 2012 Apr; 524(1):77-83. PMID: 22469950
Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecules (CEACAMs) belong to the immunoglobulin superfamily and contribute to cell-cell adhesion and signal modulation in various tissues. In humans, several CEACAMs are targeted by pathogenic...

Buntru A, Kopp K, Voges M, Frank R, Bachmann V, Hauck C
J Biol Chem . 2011 Jan; 286(11):9555-66. PMID: 21216968
Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 3 (CEACAM3) is an immunoglobulin-related receptor expressed on human granulocytes. CEACAM3 functions as a single chain phagocytotic receptor recognizing gram-negative bacteria such as Neisseria gonorrhoeae,...

Hoffmann C, Berking A, Agerer F, Buntru A, Neske F, Chhatwal G, et al.
J Cell Sci . 2010 Nov; 123(Pt 24):4280-91. PMID: 21098633
Staphylococcus aureus, which is a leading cause of hospital-acquired infections, binds via fibronectin to integrin α5β1, a process that can promote host colonization in vivo. Integrin engagement induces actin cytoskeleton...

Buntru A, Zimmermann T, Hauck C
BMC Biol . 2009 Nov; 7:81. PMID: 19939239
Background: Bacteria-triggered signaling events in infected host cells are key elements in shaping the host response to pathogens. Within the eukaryotic cell, signaling complexes are spatially organized. However, the investigation...
