Implications of phase variation of a gene (pgtA) encoding a pilin galactosyl transferase in gonococcal pathogenesisAsesh Banerjee
Department of Biology, The Catholic University of America, Washington, DC 20064, USA
J Exp Med 196:147-62. 2002..In contrast, for the vast majority (20 out of 28) of GC isolated from uncomplicated gonorrhea (UG) patients, pgtA lacked the poly-G. These results indicate that Pv of pgtA is likely to be involved in the conversion of UG to DGI...
The role of pilin glycan in neisserial pathogenesisAsesh Banerjee
Department of Biology, The Catholic University of America, Washington, DC 20064, USA
Mol Cell Biochem 253:179-90. 2003..Additional implications of Pg in various physiological and pathogenic mechanisms of Neisseria can also be envisaged based on various recent data...
Pathogenic consequences of Neisseria gonorrhoeae pilin glycan variationSalil K Ghosh
Department of Microbiology and Immunology, New York Medical College, Basic Science Building, RM 340, Valhalla, NY 10595, USA
Microbes Infect 6:693-701. 2004..However, other GC, predominantly the uncomplicated gonorrhea isolates, carry a pgtA lacking phase-variability. These and other results suggest GC pilin glycan's pathogenic involvement...
Differences in glycosylation patterns of heat shock protein, gp96: implications for prostate cancer preventionRobert Suriano
Department of Microbiology and Immunology, New York Medical College, Valhalla, New York 10595, USA
Cancer Res 65:6466-75. 2005..We believe that the unique glycosylation patterns contribute to cellular phenotype and that the posttranslational modifications of gp96 may affect its functional attributes...
