Burkinshaw BJ1, Deng W2, Lameignère E1, Wasney GA1, Zhu H1, Worrall LJ1, Finlay BB3, Strynadka NC4.
The Journal of biological chemistry.J Biol Chem.2015 Apr 17;290(16):10406-17. doi: 10.1074/jbc.M115.639013. Epub 2015 Feb 12.
The Gram-negative bacterium enteropathogenic Escherichia coli uses a syringe-like type III secretion system (T3SS) to inject virulence or "effector" proteins into the cytoplasm of host intestinal epithelial cells. To assemble, the T3SS must traverse both bacterial membranes, as well as the peptidogl

The need of MMP-2 on the sperm surface for Xenopus fertilization: its role in a fast electrical block to polyspermy.

Iwao Y1, Shiga K2, Shiroshita A2, Yoshikawa T2, Sakiie M2, Ueno T2, Ueno S2, Ijiri TW3, Sato K3.
Mechanisms of development.Mech Dev.2014 Nov;134:80-95. doi: 10.1016/j.mod.2014.09.005. Epub 2014 Oct 5.
Monospermic fertilization in the frog, Xenopus laevis, is ensured by a fast-rising, positive fertilization potential to prevent polyspermy on the fertilized egg, followed by a slow block with the formation of a fertilization envelope over the egg surface. In this paper, we found that not only the en

… It appears, therefore, that the spermatozoa must spend some time in the female genital tract before sperm is capable of penetrating the egg. … Meantime, vesiculation occurs between the plasma and outer acrosomal membranes. … The process leads to the formation, around the acrosome, of a double-walled, fenestrated layer made up of the vesiculated remnants of plasma and outer acrosomal membranes. …
