Duncan M, Herrera N, Johnson K, Engel J, Auerbuch V
PLoS One . 2017 Feb; 12(2):e0171406. PMID: 28166267
Infection of human cells with Yersinia pseudotuberculosis expressing a functional type III secretion system (T3SS) leads to activation of host NF-κB. We show that the Yersinia T3SS activates distinct NF-κB...

Ruch T, Bryant D, Mostov K, Engel J
Mol Biol Cell . 2016 Nov; 28(2):252-260. PMID: 27881661
Pathogens can alter epithelial polarity by recruiting polarity proteins to the apical membrane, but how a change in protein localization is linked to polarity disruption is not clear. In this...

Inclan Y, Persat A, Greninger A, Von Dollen J, Johnson J, Krogan N, et al.
Mol Microbiol . 2016 May; 101(4):590-605. PMID: 27145134
Type IV pili (TFP) function as mechanosensors to trigger acute virulence programs in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. On surface contact, TFP retraction activates the Chp chemosensory system phosphorelay to upregulate 3', 5'-cyclic...

Persat A, Inclan Y, Engel J, Stone H, Gitai Z
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2015 Jun; 112(24):7563-8. PMID: 26041805
Bacteria have evolved a wide range of sensing systems to appropriately respond to environmental signals. Here we demonstrate that the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa detects contact with surfaces on short...

Tran C, Rangel S, Almblad H, Kierbel A, Givskov M, Tolker-Nielsen T, et al.
PLoS Pathog . 2014 Nov; 10(11):e1004479. PMID: 25375398
Clinical infections by Pseudomonas aeruginosa, a deadly Gram-negative, opportunistic pathogen of immunocompromised hosts, often involve the formation of antibiotic-resistant biofilms. Although biofilm formation has been extensively studied in vitro on...

Tran C, Eran Y, Ruch T, Bryant D, Datta A, Brakeman P, et al.
Cell Host Microbe . 2014 May; 15(5):636-43. PMID: 24832456
The mucosal epithelium consists of polarized cells with distinct apical and basolateral membranes that serve as functional and physical barriers to external pathogens. The apical surface of the epithelium constitutes...

Bucior I, Abbott J, Song Y, Matthay M, Engel J
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol . 2013 Jun; 305(5):L352-63. PMID: 23792737
Treatment of acute and chronic pulmonary infections caused by opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is limited by the increasing frequency of multidrug bacterial resistance. Here, we describe a novel adjunctive therapy...

Bastidas R, Elwell C, Engel J, Valdivia R
Cold Spring Harb Perspect Med . 2013 May; 3(5):a010256. PMID: 23637308
Chlamydia trachomatis is the most common sexually transmitted bacterial pathogen and the causative agent of blinding trachoma. Although Chlamydia is protected from humoral immune responses by residing within remodeled intracellular...

Bucior I, Pielage J, Engel J
PLoS Pathog . 2012 Apr; 8(4):e1002616. PMID: 22496644
Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an important opportunistic pathogen of man, exploits numerous factors for initial attachment to the host, an event required to establish bacterial infection. In this paper, we rigorously explore...

Elwell C, Engel J
Cell Microbiol . 2012 Mar; 14(7):1010-8. PMID: 22452394
Chlamydia species are obligate intracellular pathogens that are important causes of human genital tract, ocular and respiratory infections. The bacteria replicate within a specialized membrane-bound compartment termed the inclusion and...
