Granzyme B attenuates bacterial virulence by targeting secreted factors

López León, Diego ; Matthey, Patricia ; Fellay, Isabelle ; Blanchard, Marianne ; Martinvalet, Denis ; Mantel, Pierre-Yves ; Filgueira, Luis ; Walch, Michael

In: iScience, 2020, vol. 23, no. 3, p. 100932

Pathogenic bacteria secrete virulence factors that interact with the human host to establish infections. The human immune system evolved multiple mechanisms to fight bacterial invaders, including immune proteases that were demonstrated to contribute crucially to antibacterial defense. Here we show that granzyme B degrades multiple secreted virulence mediators from Listeria monocytogenes,...

Endophytes and epiphytes from the grapevine leaf microbiome as potential biocontrol agents against phytopathogens

Bruisson, Sébastien ; Zufferey, Mónica ; L’Haridon, Floriane ; Trutmann, Eva ; Anand, Abhishek ; Dutartre, Agnès ; Vrieze, Mout De ; Weisskopf, Laure

In: Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019, vol. 10, p. -

Plants harbor diverse microbial communities that colonize both below-ground and above-ground organs. Some bacterial members of these rhizosphere and phyllosphere microbial communities have been shown to contribute to plant defenses against pathogens. In this study, we characterize the pathogen-inhibiting potential of 78 bacterial isolates retrieved from endophytic and epiphytic communities...

Microbial life in the grapevine: what can we expect from the leaf microbiome?

Vionnet, Léo ; Vrieze, Mout De ; Dutartre, Agnès ; Gfeller, Aurélie ; Lüthi, Angelika ; L’Haridon, Floriane ; Weisskopf, Laure

In: OENO One, 2018, vol. 52, no. 3, p. 219–224

Recent studies have shown that plants harbor complex bacterial communities, the so- called “microbiome”. We are only beginning to unravel the origin of these bacterial plant inhabitants, their community structure and their roles, which, in analogy to the gut microbiome, are likely to be of essential nature. The aim of this work was to analyze the abundance and diversity of the cultivable...
