Proteasomes degrade most of the proteins inside eukaryotic cells, including transcription factors and regulators of cell cycle progression. Here we show that nanomolar concentrations of lactacystin, a specific irreversible inhibitor of the 20S protea

Human serum is effective at lysing unsensitized rabbit erythrocytes due to activation of the alternative complement pathway. Hemolysis is known to be enhanced by the addition of human IgG. We demonstrate that the enhancement of alternative pathway-me

The initial phase of membrane attack by complement is the interaction between C5b6, C7, and the cell membrane that leads to the insertion of C5b-7. Here we investigate the role of sialic acid residues in the assembly of C5b-7 intermediates on erythro

The membrane glycoprotein CD59 protects host cells from homologous complement attack by inhibiting the assembly of the membrane attack complex. CD59 binds to C8 and C9 in the nascent membrane attack complex and interferes with C9 membrane insertion a

Here we report the presence of a trans-sialidase on the surface of Trypanosoma brucei culture-derived procyclic trypomastigotes. The enzyme is not detected in lysates of bloodstream trypomastigotes enriched for either stumpy or slender forms. The tra

Erythrocytes shed membrane vesicles in response to many stimuli. It has been previously demonstrated that glycan phosphatidylinositol-linked (GPI-linked) proteins such as decay accelerating factor and acetylcholinesterase are concentrated in these ve

Nucleated cells can resist attack by C by exocytosis or endocytosis of the terminal C components C5b-9 (membrane attack complex) (MAC), but it is generally accepted that formation of a single MAC channel on E leads to lysis (one-hit theory). We find

The protozoan parasite Trypanosoma cruzi can infect many distinct mammalian cell types. The parasites enter cells through the formation of phagocytic vacuoles, but later are found free in the cytosol, where they multiply as amastigotes. Using transmi

We show here an effective and novel approach to engineer peptide-based vaccines using a chemically defined system, known as multiple peptide antigen systems (MAPs), to protect an inbred mouse strain from infection against rodent malaria. 10 mono- and

A sporozoite malaria vaccine which elicits high levels of antibodies to the circumsporozoite (CS) protein may protect part of the human population in areas of low endemicity. Other possible targets of a sporozoite vaccine are the liver stages, but in
