Lysine methylation shields an intracellular pathogen from ubiquitylation

P. Engstrom, T. P. Burke, A. T. Iavarone, M. D. Welch

This study shows that Rickettsia parkeri uses lysine methylation to prevent ubiquitylation of outer membrane proteins, thereby evading host autophagy and enabling pathogenesis.

Interferon receptor-deficient mice are susceptible to eschar-associated rickettsiosis.

T. P. Burke, P. Engstrom, C. J. Tran, D. R. Glasner, D. A. Espinosa, E. Harris, M. D. Welch

This study shows that interferon receptor-deficient mice develop eschars and lethal disease upon Rickettsia parkeri infection, mimicking human rickettsiosis, and identifies vaccine candidates.

Mechanical competition triggered by innate immune signaling drives the collective extrusion of bacterially-infected epithelial cells

E. E. Bastounis, F. S. Alcade, P. Radhakrishnan, P. Engstrom, M. J. Gomez Benito, M. S. Oswald, J. G. Smith, M. Welch, J. M. Garcia-Aznar, J. A. Theriot

The paper shows that innate immune signaling triggers mechanical competition, leading to the collective extrusion of infected epithelial cells by uninfected bystanders.
