Staphylococcus aureus is a bacterium responsible for a wide range of diseases, with the Staphylococcal Scalded Skin Syndrome (SSSS) being one of the most serious. The skin damage in SSSS is caused by S. aureus Exfoliative Toxins (ETs), which are Chymotrypsin-Like Serine Proteases (CLSPs) that cleave the cadherin desmoglein-1 (Dsg-1). Four ETs of the CLSP family have been identified so far…
Malaria is a devastating infectious disease caused by parasites of the genus Plasmodia. Nearly half of the world's population, lives in areas where malaria is endemic and roughly one million deaths in children are reported every year. During the first decade of this century a dozen or so new drugs entered the clinical development and also new ways of accelerating the discovery of antimala…
Several Staphylococcus spp. express exfoliative toxins (ETs), which act as key virulence factors facilitating host invasion and infection. S. aureus is a notorious pathogen that can produce different ETs (ETA to ETE) causing serious diseases in humans and animals of economic value, such as the staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) and mastitis. Other species, e.g., S. sciuri and S. …
