Bouguelia S, Roupioz Y, Slimani S, Mondani L, Casabona M, Durmort C, et al.
Lab Chip . 2013 Aug; 13(20):4024-32. PMID: 23912527
Microbial culture continues to be the most common protocol for bacterial detection and identification in medicine and agronomics. Using this process may take days to identify a specific pathogen for...

Boncoeur E, Durmort C, Bernay B, Ebel C, Di Guilmi A, Croize J, et al.
Biochemistry . 2012 Sep; 51(39):7755-65. PMID: 22950454
All bacterial multidrug ABC transporters have been shown to work as either homodimers or heterodimers. Two possibly linked genes, patA and patB from Streptococcus pneumococcus, that encode half-ABC transporters have...

Chimalapati S, Cohen J, Camberlein E, Macdonald N, Durmort C, Vernet T, et al.
PLoS One . 2012 Aug; 7(7):e41393. PMID: 22911788
Lipoproteins are an important class of surface associated proteins that have diverse roles and frequently are involved in the virulence of bacterial pathogens. As prolipoproteins are attached to the cell...
14.
Bayle L, Chimalapati S, Schoehn G, Brown J, Vernet T, Durmort C
Mol Microbiol . 2011 Oct; 82(4):904-16. PMID: 22023106
Zinc is an essential trace metal for living cells. The ABC transporter AdcABC was previously shown to be required for zinc uptake by Streptococcus pneumoniae. As we have recently described...
15.
Chimalapati S, Cohen J, Camberlein E, Durmort C, Baxendale H, de Vogel C, et al.
Infect Immun . 2011 Sep; 79(12):4965-76. PMID: 21947774
Avirulent strains of a bacterial pathogen could be useful tools for investigating immunological responses to infection and potentially effective vaccines. We have therefore constructed an auxotrophic TIGR4 Δpab strain of...

Loisel E, Chimalapati S, Bougault C, Imberty A, Gallet B, Di Guilmi A, et al.
Biochemistry . 2011 Mar; 50(17):3551-8. PMID: 21425866
Zinc homeostasis is critical for pathogen host colonization. Indeed, during invasion, Streptococcus pneumoniae has to finely regulate zinc transport to cope with a wide range of Zn(2+) concentrations within the...

Almagro S, Durmort C, Chervin-Petinot A, Heyraud S, Dubois M, Lambert O, et al.
Mol Cell Biol . 2010 Feb; 30(7):1703-17. PMID: 20123970
Vascular endothelium (VE), the monolayer of endothelial cells that lines the vascular tree, undergoes damage at the basis of some vascular diseases. Its integrity is maintained by VE-cadherin, an adhesive...

Attali C, Durmort C, Vernet T, Di Guilmi A
Infect Immun . 2008 Aug; 76(11):5350-6. PMID: 18725422
The precise mechanisms by which Streptococcus pneumoniae overcomes epithelial and endothelial barriers to access underlying human tissues remain to be determined. The plasminogen system is highly important for the tissue...

Loisel E, Jacquamet L, Serre L, Bauvois C, Ferrer J, Vernet T, et al.
J Mol Biol . 2008 Jul; 381(3):594-606. PMID: 18632116
Regulation of metal homeostasis is vital for pathogenic bacteria facing drastic metal concentration changes in various locations within the host during invasion. Metal-binding receptors (MBRs), one of the extracellular components...

Taveau J, Dubois M, Le Bihan O, Trepout S, Almagro S, Hewat E, et al.
Biochem Soc Trans . 2008 Mar; 36(Pt 2):189-93. PMID: 18363560
In vascular endothelium, adherens junctions between endothelial cells are composed of VE-cadherin (vascular endothelial cadherin), an adhesive receptor that is crucial for the proper assembly of vascular structures and the...
