Modeling and monitoring the effects of three partly conserved Ile residues in the dimerization domain of a Mip-like virulence factor from Escherichia coli

S Seal, T Chakraborty, S Polley, D Paul… - Journal of …, 2024 - Taylor & Francis
FKBP22, an Escherichia coli-made peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase, has shown
considerable homology with Mip-like virulence factors. While the C-terminal domain of this …

A staphylococcal cyclophilin carries a single domain and unfolds via the formation of an intermediate that preserves cyclosporin A binding activity

S Seal, S Polley, S Sau - Plos one, 2019 - journals.plos.org
Cyclophilin (Cyp), a peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase (PPIase), acts as a virulence factor in
many bacteria including Staphylococcus aureus. The enzymatic activity of Cyp is inhibited …

The lysogenic growth of phage ф11 in Staphylococcus aureus is controlled by a repressor
(CI) that harbors an N-terminal domain (NTD), and a C-terminal domain (CTD). Previously …
