Glycoconjugates are major constituents of mammalian cells that are formed via covalent
conjugation of carbohydrates to other biomolecules like proteins and lipids and often …

Many important interactions between bacterial pathogens and their hosts are highly specific
binding events that involve host or pathogen carbohydrate structures (glycans). Glycan …

The opportunistic intracellular pathogen Listeria monocytogenes has become a paradigm
for the study of host–pathogen interactions and bacterial adaptation to mammalian hosts …

Wolbachia is an intracellular endosymbiont infecting most arthropod and some filarial
nematode species that is vertically transmitted through the maternal lineage. Due to this …

The molecular mechanisms used by the gonococcus to initiate infection exhibit gender
specificity. The clinical presentations of disease are also strikingly different upon comparison …

The bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes uses the surface protein InlB to invade a
