This method involves direct labeling of surface proteins of living bacteria using fluorescent dyes and a subsequent separation of the crude extract by 2D gel electrophoresis. The strategy yields a substantial enrichment in surface proteins over cytoplasmic proteins. We validated this method by monitoring the effect of the regulatory RNA MicA in Escherichia coli, which regulates the synthesis of several outer membrane proteins, and highlighted the role of Staphylococcus aureus RNAIII for the maintenance of cell wall integrity.},

abstract = {BACKGROUND: The identification of pathological markers of breast cancer for either diagnosis, treatment response or for survival is of critical importance. METHODS: Serum protein profiling using 2-DE separations coupled to matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry has been used to explore protein alterations in patients with infiltrating ductal breast carcinomas (IDCA). Sera from 39 breast cancer patients and 40 healthy controls were selected for screening study using 2-DE combined with MS. The protein expression patterns obtained after the depletion of high abundance proteins was determined by coomassie blue G-250 stain after 2-DE electrophoresis. RESULTS: Six proteins that expressed differentially in the IDCA group were found. The expression levels of four isoforms corresponding to haptoglobin precursor and two isoforms of alpha1-antitrypsin precursor (alpha1-AT) were upregulated in sera from breast cancer patients. There was an increased expression of both proteins in the sera of patients with various tumor stages (I, II, III) in comparison to healthy women. Applying immunohistochemistry, we further validated alpha1-AT immunoreactivity in 51 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded sections of breast tumors. Enhanced expression of alpha1-AT like activity has been found in IDCA breast tumors, as well as, in different histological types of breast cancer. No significant association has been found with lymph node occurrence, while in high tumor categories a tendency to an increased expression of alpha1-AT has been found, thereby suggesting a possible role of this protein in tumor growth. CONCLUSIONS: These proteins may constitute new and useful markers of breast cancer that offer a clue to a better understanding of inflammatory pathways and carcinogenesis events linked to breast cancer progression.},

abstract = {Lactobacillus plantarum susbp. plantarum is a capnophilic Gram-positive heterotroph with optimal growth in 4 % CO(2)-enriched air. At low inorganic carbon (C(i)) concentrations, the pyr genes encoding the enzymes of the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway were overexpressed, in agreement with a previous study showing that these genes are regulated at the transcription level in response to C(i) via a PyrR(2)-mediated mechanism. A previous study of high-CO(2)-requiring (HCR) mutants revealed an unknown genetic link between arginine regulation and C(i)-dependent nutritional needs. To better understand L. plantarum's adaptation to C(i) availability, additional C(i)-responsive genes were sought in the arginine biosynthetic pathway (arg and car genes) using slot-blot hybridization and a proteomic differential 2D gel electrophoresis (DIGE) global approach. Besides the nine pyr-encoded proteins, 16 new Icr (inorganic-carbon-regulated) proteins accumulated differentially in response to C(i) availability, suggesting that the C(i) response involves several metabolic pathways and adaptation processes. Among these Icr proteins only argininosuccinate lyase, encoded by argH, was involved in arginine biosynthesis. Three proteins involved in the purine biosynthetic pathway and nucleotide conversion, adenylate kinase (Adk), GMP synthase (GuaA), and IMP dehydrogenase (GuaB), accumulated differentially in response to changes in C(i) levels. Expression of the Icr protein-encoding genes argH and guaB was regulated at the transcription level or by RNA stability in response to C(i) availability, as previously demonstrated for the pyr genes. However, PyrR(2) was not essential for the C(i)-regulated transcription of argH and guaB, demonstrating that PyrR(2) modulates only a subset of C(i)-regulated genes. These results suggest that the C(i) response may involve at least two regulatory mechanisms in L. plantarum.},

abstract = {During the last part of egg incubation in king penguins, the male can preserve undigested food in the stomach for several weeks. This ensures survival of the newly hatched chick, in cases where the return of the foraging female from the sea is delayed. In accordance with the characterization of stress-induced bacteria, we demonstrate the occurrence of strong antimicrobial activities in preserved stomach contents. We isolated and fully characterized two isoforms of a novel 38-residue antimicrobial peptide (AMP), spheniscin, belonging to the beta-defensin subfamily. Spheniscin concentration was found to strongly increase during the period of food storage. Using a synthetic version of one of two spheniscin isoforms, we established that this peptide has a broad activity spectrum, affecting the growth of both pathogenic bacteria and fungi. Altogether, our data suggest that spheniscins and other, not yet identified, antimicrobial substances may play a role in the long term preservation of stored food in the stomach of king penguins.},

abstract = {Drosophila is a powerful model system to study the regulatory and effector mechanisms of innate immunity. To identify molecules induced in the course of viral infection in this insect, we have developed a model based on intrathoracic injection of the picorna-like Drosophila C virus (DCV). We have used MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry to compare the hemolymph of DCV infected flies and control flies. By contrast with the strong humoral response triggered by injection of bacteria or fungal spores, we have identified only one molecule induced in the hemolymph of virus infected flies. This molecule, pherokine-2 (Phk-2), is related to OS-D/A10 (Phk-1), which was previously characterized as a putative odor/pheromone binding protein specifically expressed in antennae. The virus-induced molecule is also similar to the product of the gene CG9358 (Phk-3), which is induced by septic injury. Both Phk-2 and Phk-3 are strongly expressed during metamorphosis, suggesting that they may participate in tissue-remodeling.},

abstract = {Essential aspects of innate immune responses to microbial infections appear to be conserved between insects and mammals. In particular, in both groups, transmembrane receptors of the Toll superfamily play a crucial role in activating immune defenses. The Drosophila Toll family member 18-Wheeler had been proposed to sense Gram-negative infection and direct selective expression of peptides active against Gram-negative bacteria. Here we re-examine the role of 18-Wheeler and show that in adults it is dispensable for immune responses. In larvae, 18wheeler is required for normal fat body development, and in mutant larvae induction of all antimicrobial peptide genes, and not only of those directed against Gram-negative bacteria, is compromised. 18-Wheeler does not qualify as a pattern recognition receptor of Gram-negative bacteria.},

abstract = {We have developed an approach based on a differential mass spectrometric analysis to detect molecules induced during the immune response of Drosophila, regardless of their biological activities. For this, we have applied directly matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization MS to hemolymph samples from individual flies before and after an immune challenge. This method provided precise information on the molecular masses of immune-induced molecules and allowed the detection, in the molecular range of 1.5-11 kDa, of 24 Drosophila immune-induced molecules (DIMs). These molecules are all peptides, and four correspond to already characterized antimicrobial peptides. We have further analyzed the induction of the various peptides by immune challenge in wild-type flies and in mutants with a compromised antimicrobial response. We also describe a methodology combining matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight MS, HPLC, and Edman degradation, which yielded the peptide sequence of three of the DIMs. Finally, molecular cloning and Northern blot analyses revealed that one of the DIMs is produced as a prepropeptide and is inducible on a bacterial challenge.},

Sequence analysis revealed that this peptide consisted of 40 amino acid residues with six cysteines engaged in the formation of three intramolecular disulfide bridges. This peptide is unique among the arthropod defensins in terms of the presence of asparatic acid and alanine at position 33 and as C-terminal residue, respectively. In addition, this novel defensin from Formica rufa has the particularity to have no C-terminal extension in contrast to those reported for other hymenoptera defensins.},
