Our new preprint is online! Viruses, bacteria and parasites use effector proteins to evade immunity and rewire host cell pathways. Together with @AlexanderStark8, we wondered if we could systematically map what these effectors, regardless of their origin, do in human cells. 1/8

The pathogenic bacterium Coxiella burnetii induces the secretion of lysosomal hydrolases to the extracellular space to facilitate growth within modified phagolysosomes @laurenbird.bsky.social @lauraem-lab.bsky.social @hayleyjnewton.bsky.social

Coxiella burnetii manipulates the lysosomal protease cathepsin B to facilitate intracellular success - Nature Communications
The zoonotic pathogen Coxiella burnetiiestablishes a unique intracellular niche within a lysosome-derived vacuole. Here Bird et al. undertook proteomic, cell biology and microbiology approaches to characterise this niche and the strategies employed by C. burnetii to maintain a balance between intracellular success and maintaining host cell homoeostasis.

Very proud of this story - driven by @laurenbird.bsky.social -uncovering the ways Coxiella messes with the lysosome. This has been such a fun collaboration with @lauraem-lab.bsky.social raising many new questions! @monashuniversity.bsky.social @thedohertyinst.bsky.social @natcommag.bsky.social

For my first Bluesky post … let me introduce you to Paracoxiella! This has been a fun adventure - shedding light on a mysterious Dot/Icm Coxiellaceae causing trouble for crayfish. A wonderful collaboration across rivers, states and oceans! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

The complete genome sequence of the crayfish pathogen Candidatus Paracoxiella cheracis n.g. n.sp. provides insight into pathogenesis and the phylogeny of the Coxiellaceae family
The Coxiellaceae bacterial family, within the order Legionellales, is defined by a collection of poorly characterized obligate intracellular bacteria. The zoonotic pathogen and causative agent of huma...
