Protein Disulfide Isomerase and Host-Pathogen Interaction 2011-10-11 .txt text/plain 5990 297 41 These especially affect (i) pathogen entry through protein redox switches and redox modification (i.e., intraand interdisulfide and cysteine oxidation) and (ii) phagocytic ROS production via Nox family NADPH oxidase enzyme and the control of phagolysosome function with key implications for antigen processing. Among the many redox sensitive proteins that are altered during the course of different infections, protein disulfide isomerase (PDI-) mediated redox switches have been associated with pathogen attachment-internalization, antigen processing in the ER/phagosome, and the regulation of ROS production by Nox family enzymes. PDI is thought to attach to lipids, glycans, and integral membrane proteins via electrostatic interactions at the cell plasma membrane [14, 15] , where its reductive activity mediates the infection of different pathogens ( Figure 2 , discussed later). Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) associates with NADPH oxidase and is required for phagocytosis of Leishmania chagasi promastigotes by macrophages ./cache/cord-000479-u87eaaj8.txt ./txt/cord-000479-u87eaaj8.txt
