T cells recognize microbial glycolipids presented by CD1 proteins, but there is no information regarding the generation of natural glycolipid antigens within infected tissues. Therefore, we determined the molecular basis of CD1b-restricted T cell recognition of mycobacterial glycosylated mycolates, including

In Neurospora crassa hyphae the localization of all seven chitin synthases (CHSs) at the Spitzenkörper (SPK) and at developing septa has been well analyzed. Hitherto, the mechanisms of CHSs traffic and sorting from synthesis to delivery sites remain largely unexplored.

The nonsteroidal androgen-receptor antagonist flutamide is associated with hepatic injury. Oxidative stress and reactive metabolite formation are considered contributing factors to liver toxicity. Here we have used flutamide as a model drug to study the generation of reactive drug metabolites
