Identification and characterization of an HtrA sheddase produced by <i>Coxiella burnetii</i>
2023-01-26
Abstract excerpt
Having previously shown that soluble E-cadherin (sE-cad) is found in sera of Q fever patients, and that infection of BeWo cells by C. burnetii leads to modulation of the E-cad/β-cat pathway, our purpose was to identify which sheddase(s) might catalyze the cleavage of E-cad. Here, we searched for a direct mechanism of cleavage initiated by the bacterium itself, assuming the possible synthesis of a sheddase encoded...
