N-Linked Glycosylation in Campylobacter jejuni and Its Functional Transfer into E. coli

M Wacker, D Linton, PG Hitchen, M Nita-Lazar… - Science, 2002 - science.org
N-linked protein glycosylation is the most abundant posttranslation modification of secretory
proteins in eukaryotes. A wide range of functions are attributed to glycan structures …

Genetic and biochemical evidence of a Campylobacter jejuni capsular polysaccharide that accounts for Penner serotype specificity

AV Karlyshev, D Linton, NA Gregson… - Molecular …, 2000 - Wiley Online Library
Campylobacter jejuni, a Gram‐negative spiral bacterium, is the most common bacterial cause
of acute human gastroenteritis and is increasingly recognized for its association with the …

Whole genome comparison of Campylobacter jejuni human isolates using a low-cost microarray reveals extensive genetic diversity

…, JA Mangan, KG Laing, J Hinds, D Linton… - Genome …, 2001 - genome.cshlp.org
Campylobacter jejuni is the leading cause of bacterial food-borne diarrhoeal disease
throughout the world, and yet is still a poorly understood pathogen. Whole genome microarray …

Helicobacter pullorumsp. nov. - genotype and phenotype of a new species isolated from poultry and from human patients with gastroenteritis

J Stanley, D Linton, AP Burnens… - …, 1994 - microbiologyresearch.org
Campylobacter-like organisms were isolated from the liver, duodenum and caecum of
broiler and layer chickens, and from humans with gastroenteritis. They formed a unique DNA …

Phase variation of a β‐1,3 galactosyltransferase involved in generation of the ganglioside GM1‐like lipo‐oligosaccharide of Campylobacter jejuni

D Linton, M Gilbert, PG Hitchen, A Dell… - Molecular …, 2000 - Wiley Online Library
Ganglioside mimicry by Campylobacter jejuni lipo‐oligosaccharide (LOS) is thought to be a
critical factor in the triggering of the Guillain–Barré and Miller–Fisher syndrome neuropathies …

Functional analysis of the Campylobacter jejuni N‐linked protein glycosylation pathway

D Linton, N Dorrell, PG Hitchen, S Amber… - Molecular …, 2005 - Wiley Online Library
We describe in this report the characterization of the recently discovered N‐linked glycosylation
locus of the human bacterial pathogen Campylobacter jejuni, the first such system found …

Campylobacter–a tale of two protein glycosylation systems

CM Szymanski, SM Logan, D Linton, BW Wren - Trends in microbiology, 2003 - cell.com
Post-translational glycosylation is a universal modification of proteins in eukarya, archaea
and bacteria. Two recent publications describe the first confirmed report of a bacterial N-linked …

…, CA Woodall, DJ Maskell, D Linton… - Infection and …, 2004 - Am Soc Microbiol
The genome sequence of the human pathogen Campylobacter jejuni NCTC11168 has been
determined recently, but studies on colonization and persistence in chickens have been …

A novel paralogous gene family involved in phase-variable flagella-mediated motility in Campylobacter jejuni

AV Karlyshev, D Linton, NA Gregson… - Microbiology, 2002 - microbiologyresearch.org
Flagella-mediated motility is recognized to be one of the major factors contributing to virulence
in Campylobacter jejuni. Motility of this bacterium is known to be phase variable, although …

Identification of N‐acetylgalactosamine‐containing glycoproteins PEB3 and CgpA in Campylobacter jejuni

D Linton, E Allan, AV Karlyshev… - Molecular …, 2002 - Wiley Online Library
It was demonstrated recently that there is a system of general protein glycosylation in the
human enteropathogen Campylobacter jejuni. To char‐ acterize such glycoproteins, we …
