Sortase-assembled pili contribute to virulence in many Gram-positive bacteria. In Enterococcus faecalis, the endocarditis and biofilm-associated pilus (Ebp) is polymerized on the membrane by sortase C (SrtC) and attached to the cell wall by sortase A

The adherence of monocytes to the endothelium is an early event in atherogenesis which is modulated by low density lipoproteins (LDL). We analyzed the effect of atherogenic LDL levels (180 mg cholesterol/dl, for 24 h) with minimal oxidative modificat

Background Fatty acids have shown to be both modulators and messengers of signals triggered at the level of cell membranes. There is, however, controversy about the role of fatty acids in cell proliferation kinetics, and it is still unknown whether c

The nitric oxide synthase family of proteins is the unique class of mammalian enzymes that metabolizes L-arginine to form nitric oxide (NO). The atherogenic action of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) may be mediated, in part, by its effects on endothel

The signaling nucleotide (p)ppGpp has been the subject of intense research in the past two decades. Initially discovered as the effector molecule of the stringent response, a bacterial stress response that reprograms cell physiology during amino acid

Biofilm formation is a well-known bacterial strategy that protects cells from hostile environments. During infection, bacteria found in a biofilm community are less sensitive to antibiotics and to the immune response, often allowing them to colonize

Manganese (Mn) is an essential micronutrient that is not readily available to pathogens during infection due to an active host defense mechanism known as nutritional immunity. To overcome this nutrient restriction, bacteria utilize high-affinity tran

As both a commensal and a major cause of healthcare-associated infections in humans, Enterococcus faecalis is a remarkably adaptable organism. We investigated how E. faecalis adapts in a mammalian host as a pathogen by characterizing changes in the t
