1. Contribuição para o diagnóstico de peste
Apesar de sua fundamentação clínico-epidemiológica, numerosos casos suspeitos de peste nos focos brasileiros têm sido descartados por serem negativos pelo teste de hemaglutinação para detecção de anticorpos contra o antígeno F1 da Yersinia pestis. A transcendência da peste justifica estudar se tais resultados decorrem da falta de resposta ao F1, e

2. AnÃlise da regulaÃÃo transcricional de genes de Yersinia em Escherichia coli
Yersiniae possess a type III secretion system, responsible for the translocation of proteins known as Yops, to the interior of the eukaryotic cells of the host. The YopH protein is a tyrosine phosphatase that desphosphorylates signalling molecules and impairs phagocytosis in macrophages. For its efficient secretion it needs the presence of the chaperone SycH

3. Tyrosine phosphate hydrolysis of host proteins by an essential Yersinia virulence determinant.
The plasmid-encoded YopH protein is a protein-tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase; EC 3.1.3.48) that is essential for Yersinia virulence. We have investigated the molecular basis for the role of PTPase activity in Yersinia pathogenesis. Allelic recombination was employed to introduce a defined mutation into the yopH plasmid gene. Conversion of the essential Cys-403

4. Identification of the YopE and YopH domains required for secretion and internalization into the cytosol of macrophages, using the cyaA gene fusion approach.
Pathogenic yersiniae secrete a set of antihost proteins, called Yops, by a type III secretion mechanism. Upon infection of cultured epithelial cells, extracellular Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and Yersinia enterocolitica translocate cytotoxin YopE across the host cell plasma membrane. Several lines of evidence suggest that tyrosine phosphatase YopH follows th

5. Inhibition of the Fc receptor-mediated oxidative burst in macrophages by the Yersinia pseudotuberculosis tyrosine phosphatase.
Suppression of host-cell-mediated immunity is a hallmark feature of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis infection. To better understand this process, the interaction of Y. pseudotuberculosis with macrophages and the effect of the virulence plasmid-encoded Yersinia tyrosine phosphatase (YopH) on the oxidative burst was analyzed in a chemiluminescence assay. An oxidat

6. Yops of Yersinia enterocolitica Inhibit Receptor-Dependent Superoxide Anion Production by Human Granulocytes
The virulence plasmid-borne genes encoding Yersinia adhesin A (YadA) and several Yersinia secreted proteins (Yops) are involved in the inhibition of phagocytosis and killing of Yersinia enterocolitica by human granulocytes. One of these Yops, YopH, dephosphorylates multiple tyrosine-phosphorylated proteins in eukaryotic cells and is involved in the inhibitio

7. Individual chaperones required for Yop secretion by Yersinia.
Pathogenic yersiniae secrete anti-host proteins called Yops, by a recently discovered Sec-independent pathway. The Yops do not have a classical signal peptide at their N terminus and they are not processed during membrane translocation. The secretion domain is nevertheless contained in their N-terminal part but these domains do not resemble each other in the

8. Requirement of the Yersinia pseudotuberculosis Effectors YopH and YopE in Colonization and Persistence in Intestinal and Lymph Tissues
The gram-negative enteric pathogen Yersinia pseudotuberculosis employs a type III secretion system and effector Yop proteins that are required for virulence. Mutations in the type III secretion-translocation apparatus have been shown to cause defects in colonization of the murine cecum, suggesting roles for one or more effector Yops in the intestinal tract.

9. The Yersinia pseudotuberculosis adhesin YadA mediates intimate bacterial attachment to and entry into HEp-2 cells.
We characterized a bacterium-host cell interaction that is mediated by the Yersinia adhesin YadA. Derivatives of the virulence plasmid pIB1 harboring mutations in yadA, yopE, or yopH or in a low-calcium-response regulatory locus were introduced into a Yersinia pseudotuberculosis YPIII strain defective for Inv. The mutant strains were tested for the capacity

11. Differential contribution of Yersinia enterocolitica virulence factors to evasion of microbicidal action of neutrophils.
The differential contribution of the virulence factors invasin, protein tyrosine phosphatase (YopH), cytotoxin (YopE), and adhesin (YadA) of Yersinia enterocolitica to evasion of the antibacterial activities of polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) (oxidative burst, phagocytosis, killing) was analyzed. We constructed virulence gene knockout mutants and a novel

12. Yersinia enterocolitica TyeA, an Intracellular Regulator of the Type III Machinery, Is Required for Specific Targeting of YopE, YopH, YopM, and YopN into the Cytosol of Eukaryotic Cells
Pathogenic Yersinia species employ type III machines to target effector Yops into the cytosol of eukaryotic cells. Yersinia tyeA mutants are thought to be defective in the targeting of YopE and YopH without affecting the injection of YopM, YopN, YopO, YopP, and YopT into the cytosol of eukaryotic cells. One model suggests that TyeA may form a tether between
