Integrating high-content imaging and chemical genetics to probe host cellular pathways critical for Yersinia pestis infection. by Krishna P Kota, Brett Eaton, Douglas Lane, Melanie Ulrich, Ricky Ulrich, Brian D Peyser, Camenzind G Robinson, James G Jaissle, Gianluca Pegoraro, Sina Bavari, Rekha G Panchal

“…Together, our results suggest that phagocytosis is the major stimulus for NF-κB activation in response to Y. pestis infection, and that Y. pestis entry into macrophages may involve the participation of protein kinases such as PI3K and PKC. More importantly, the automated image-based screening platform described here can be applied to the study of other bacteria in general and, in combination with chemical genetic screening, can be used to identify host cell functions facilitating the identification of novel antibacterial therapeutics.…”

A comparison of nucleosome organization in Drosophila cell lines. by Rebecca L Martin, John Maiorano, Greg J Beitel, John F Marko, Graham McVicker, Yvonne N Fondufe-Mittendorf

“…Further analysis of these regions identified 91 out of 16,384 possible heptamer sequences that showed differential nucleosomal occupation between cell lines, and 49 of the heptamers matched one or more known transcription factor binding sites. These results demonstrate that there is differential nucleosome positioning between these Drosophila cell lines and therefore identify a system that could be used to investigate the functional significance of differential nucleosomal positioning in cell type specification.…”
