"Molecular characterization of the interaction between human IgG and th" by Emma Jayne Proctor, Hannah R. Frost et al.

Group A Streptococcal M-related proteins (Mrps) are dimeric α-helical-coiled-coil cell membrane-bound surface proteins. During infection, Mrp recruit the fragment crystallizable region of human immunoglobulin G via their A-repeat regions to the bacterial surface, conferring upon the bacteria enhanced phagocytosis resistance and augmented growth in human blood. However, Mrps show a high degree of sequence diversity, and it is currently not known whether this diversity affects the Mrp–IgG interaction. Herein, we report that diverse Mrps all bind human IgG subclasses with nanomolar affinity, with differences in affinity which ranged from 3.7 to 11.1 nM for mixed IgG. Using surface plasmon resonance, we confirmed Mrps display preferential IgG-subclass binding. All Mrps were found to have a significantly weaker affinity for IgG3 (p < 0.05) compared to all other IgG subclasses. Furthermore, plasma pulldown assays analyzed via Western blotting revealed that all Mrp were able to bind IgG ....

"Streptococcus pyogenes emm98.1 variants activate inflammatory caspases" by Jonathan G. Williams, Ronald Sluyter et al.

The human pathogen Streptococcus pyogenes (Group A Streptococcus, GAS) is responsible for invasive disease characterized by inflammation and tissue destruction. Inflammatory symptoms of invasive disease may be attributed to the neutrophil response during the early stages of infection. Here, the human neutrophil response to GAS was characterized in vitro using emm98.1 type covS mutant GAS strain NS88.2 (isolated from invasive infection) and avirulent variant NS88.2rep. NS88.2 was shown to resist phagocytic killing and proliferate in the presence of human neutrophils, where neutrophil antimicrobial defence through the production of reactive oxygen species was reduced compared with NS88.2rep. In the presence of NS88.2, neutrophil death was delayed compared with NS88.2rep. Infection with either GAS strain induced expression of inflammatory caspases-1 and -4 in neutrophils, with increased detection of activated inflammatory caspases in response to NS88.2rep compared with NS88.2. NS88.2 infe ....
