I. Understanding Membrane Interactions of Bacterial Exoproteins; II. Identification and Characterization of a Novel Mammalian cis-Aconitate Decarboxylase

Thesis advisor: Mary F. Roberts === Secreted phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase Cs (PI-PLCs) are often virulence factors in pathogenic bacteria. Understanding how these enzymes interact with target membranes may provide novel methods to control bacterial infections. In this work, two typica...
