The Listeria transcriptional landscape from saprophytism to virulence
The bacterium Listeria monocytogenes is ubiquitous in the environment and can lead to severe food-borne infections. It has recently emerged as a multifaceted model in pathogenesis. However, how this… Expand

A single amino acid in E‐cadherin responsible for host specificity towards the human pathogen Listeria monocytogenes
Human E‐cadherin promotes entry of the bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes into mammalian cells by interacting with internalin (InlA), a bacterial surface protein. Here we show that mouse… Expand

Uncovering Listeria monocytogenes hypervirulence by harnessing its biodiversity
Microbial pathogenesis studies are typically performed with reference strains, thereby overlooking within-species heterogeneity in microbial virulence. Here we integrated human epidemiological and… Expand

A Transgenic Model for Listeriosis: Role of Internalin in Crossing the Intestinal Barrier
Listeria monocytogenes is responsible for severe food-borne infections, but the mechanisms by which bacteria cross the intestinal barrier are unknown. Listeria monocytogenes expresses a surface… Expand

A Mouse Model for Chikungunya: Young Age and Inefficient Type-I Interferon Signaling Are Risk Factors for Severe Disease
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a re-emerging arbovirus responsible for a massive outbreak currently afflicting the Indian Ocean region and India. Infection from CHIKV typically induces a mild disease… Expand

Type I IFN controls chikungunya virus via its action on nonhematopoietic cells
Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is the causative agent of an outbreak that began in La Réunion in 2005 and remains a major public health concern in India, Southeast Asia, and southern Europe. CHIKV is… Expand
