GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?
  1. Studied the presence of virulence genes (B-type flagellin [fliC], exotoxin A [toxA] and phzS) using molecular typing among isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa cultured from specimens from diabetic foot. Found fliC, toxA and phzS genes can play important roles in tissue penetration, tissue damage and survival.
    Title: Virulence genes fliC, toxA and phzS are common among Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolates from diabetic foot infections.
  2. Study indicates the roles of FliC phosphorylation in the processes of motility, secretion and biofilm formation and uncovered effects of S/T phosphorylation of FliC on protease secretion by T2SS and biofilm dispersal.

  3. Passive immunization with antibodies against flagellin a+b led to an efficacious protection against P. aeruginosa infection in both acute pneumonia and burn models.

  6. Data suggest that the structure-based modeling study on paFliC, the paFliC-TLR5 complex, and the paFliC filament could contribute to the improvement of vaccine design to control P. aeruginosa infection.

    Title: The Pseudomonas aeruginosa flagellum confers resistance to pulmonary surfactant protein-A by impacting the production of exoproteases through quorum-sensing.
  8. Flagellin exclusively inhibits the ENaC sodium channel, probably due to release of ATP and activation of purinergic receptors of the P2Y subtype. This activates the MAPK pathway, inhibiting ENaC. Thus, P. aeruginosa reduces Na+ absorption.

  9. The pattern of gene expression directed by flagellin in human airway epithelial cells includes innate host defense genes, proinflammatory cytokines, and chemokines.
