Inactivation of the Fusobacterium nucleatum Rnf complex reduces FadA-mediated amyloid formation and tumor development

Timmie A. Britton, Ju Huck Lee, Chungyu Chang, Aadil Hussain Bhat, Yi-Wei Chen, Rusul Mohammed Ali, Chenggang Wu, Asis Das, Hung Ton‐That

This paper shows that disrupting the Rnf complex in Fusobacterium nucleatum reduces FadA amyloid formation and tumor development by affecting signal peptidase expression.

Ethanolamine-induced assembly of microcompartments is required for Fusobacterium nucleatum virulence

Dana S. Franklin, Yi-Wei Chen, Yimin Chen, Manuel Wittchen, Angela Agnew, Alexis Luu, Julian P. Whitelegge, Z. Hong Zhou, Andreas Tauch, Asis Das, Hung Ton‐That

This paper shows that ethanolamine utilization via BMCs is essential for Fusobacterium nucleatum virulence, as BMC formation is regulated by a TCS and disruption reduces pathogenicity in a mouse model.
